[ Usagi is the moon. Luna wonders if it means there's others, more than just Usagi and Rei. Makoto too, maybe. The idea is not... completely foreign to her; her friend Clarisse is the daughter of Ares, after all. But she's never experienced this before, not been given the power of the moon's magic — letting her borrow it to compliment her own. It's no wonder Usagi wouldn't speak of this usually.

The protective enchantments finish falling into place, the blue-white shimmering for a moment before disappearing to the naked eye. They're still there, perhaps a light iridescent haze can be seen by those who sense magic — but otherwise no longer visually obvious. Luna smiles a little, pleased with herself. ]

This kind of magic is usually only done by the most accomplished of witches or wizards. [ Powerful stuff; Luna might be capable, but she's certainly not like some of her teachers, or older magic users. She still has a lot to learn and practice. ]

I feel like I can do a great deal of good with this. Do some extra things around the house, replenish my potions stocks. Thank you, Usagi. [ Protecting her home is one thing, but if she has the power of the moon for a whole twenty four hours? She really could do all sorts. It's not like she's going to be doing much sleeping anyway. ]

My mum used to sing to the moon, when she was expecting me. Even as lullaby, too. [ There's another little smile there, quietly sombre. ] She always believed it would protect. I'm sure she'd be very happy to know I've used the moon's magic to protect my home.

[If Luna asked, Usagi would be happy to delight her with tales of the others: of Jupiter, Goddess of Protection, Lightning, Thunder, and Plants, of Mercury, Goddess of Wisdom and Knowledge, and all matters of Water, of Venus, Goddess of Love, Beauty, and Metal. She would tell her about Neptune and Uranus, Goddesses of the Sea and Sky, of Pluto, Goddess of Time, and Saturn, Goddess of Death. All of them are wholly magnificent and awesome.

But if Luna does not ask, Usagi will not tell, and even if she does, she will not reveal their other names, that is not her place to do so.

At the mention of being able to do all sorts of things, she grinned and pushed some of her hair back.]

You're welcome, I'm just glad I could help, honestly.

[She leaned forward, smiling.] Luna, should you need it, you will always have the moon's protection. I cannot speak for the moon here, but I can certainly speak for mine.
