It had been almost painful to watch such a graceful creature in the water struggle so much when on the dry ground as they had made their way towards the breeding center. She had attempted to carry Luna, but she was just too heavy and big to do it the whole way while carrying her backpack filled with toys and equipment as well. She knows with how the slowly forming seed is growing within the lotus bloom, she needs a place where she can relax better then her own garden to make it become a berry, something she seems to know instinctively as she willingly followed her to the breeding center in the slow pace they were going. With all the creatures she has in her own garden, it can be quite a busy place there, no mater how large it is. And sometimes fights break lose when some of the more territorial of her companions wants to gain more ground then the one who defends their own piece wants to willingly give up. 1

The Trick Serpents and the Dragon-Oak are the best example in that one, she couldn’t help but muse on it. Both equally strong and dangerous, though personally? She kind of wondered why the Trick Serpents of her haven’t overwhelmed the other, as they are both bigger and have the advantage of the other being weaker against poisons. Maybe they respect the fire it has within? She doesn’t really know, but right now that didn’t matter much either. They finally made it. ”I wonder what type of rooms it has available for you Luna.” She says out loud to her Lotine as they reached the large building of the breeding center, opening the door for her as she drags herself slowly through the door. She knows that next time, she will take some sort of cart with her so that they both can be here faster, and that she won’t have to struggle all this way to this place just for some peace and quiet so that she can get the seed turned into a berry and drop out of her flower.

“Just a little more Lotus, then you can rest.” She closes the door behind them, and strokes her gentle against the neck as she looks at the hallway with curiosity, letting her rest for just a bit. She can see someone is sitting behind the desk doing some paperwork, and hasn’t noticed them stepping in the building yet. She also hasn’t spoken too loudly when she did, so likely they are more focused on the work they are busy with, then some random stranger with their companion standing in the hallway. Luna looked up at her, tilting her head in a questioning motion as she seems to have satisfied her curiosity, the end of her tail lazily twitching from side to side. Smiling, she strokes the side of her head only one more time before she heads towards the desk. “Excuse me, I was hoping I could reserve a room for me and my Lotine?”

It was said in a loud enough tone this time to break the concentration of the man (a humansih if the slitted gold eyes are any indication) who had been reading a document with very tiny handwriting. “Oh?” He paused for a moment to look up, finally noticing the pair and smiling a smile large enough that it makes her think its fake, and sees the nametag pinned on his chest say ‘Volunteer Mitch’. “A Lotine you say?” He comments idle in a smooth voice as looks at Luna with just a little more interest than before as he sees the seed within Luna’s bloom, while her companion just narrows her eyes a bit more at him. “Seems it won’t be long then till she’s ready.” He continues saying as he starts sorting through a different stack of documents and hands one too her, as well as a spare pen. “Fill this in if you would?” He gives it to her then starts to stand up and turns around at the shelve behind his back. 4

Instead of picking one randomly as she had seen the previous worker doing when she was here last time with her Orbaru, he seems to choose from a very specific corner with a symbol of water on it. Looking back at the paper, she is quick to fill out everything that is needed, from her own name, to her companion, her species, and anything else that they deem relevant for information that needs to be filed. “Well, here is the key.” She hears him say just as she is done with placing her signature on it, and feels Luna bump her head a little against her upper leg from impatience, dropping the pen on the desk she strokes her head to sooth her for a few second while looking up she sees him placing the key on the desk. “If you go that way, and take the first door to the right, you’ll come to another hallway that is made especially for Lotine or other half aquatic creatures in mind. The number corresponds with the room you can use.”

With that said, the man sits down again to work on his previous documents, the file she has written everything on is seemingly being ignored. Picking the key up she gestures to Luna to follow her. She wasn’t really sure what to think of that man, she remembers the mammalian Badger from last time being more helpful than this guy, but then again, she is only carrying her backpack and she doesn’t have her hands full with Orbaru’s, so maybe that is why she is left to search for the room on her own? Oh well, she is at least able to make her pace slow enough for Luna to follow behind her without fear of getting left behind. Taking out a small fish treat from the packet in her pocket, she gives it to Luna who gobbles it up quickly when she is given one, looking quite content when she pauses for a moment to enjoy the taste.

“C’mon Luna, right through this door now.” She had been walking a few steps further, coming to the door that was mentioned to be the one that would lead to the new hallway. Which number did they even got for the room? She turns her sight to the key in her hand, needing to flip it to the other side as she saw the symbol of water first on it. “Room two, hmm?” That’s quite handy, they won’t even need to walk that much further then. Speaking of walking.. Looking at Luna she sees her coming closer with a look that is starting to turn impatient. Opening it, Luna is quick to be the first to head inside, not wanting to wait all that much to get that seed off of her. Grinning, she steps inside as well, closing the door behind her, she only needs to walk for a few more seconds with Luna dragging herself behind her to come to the right door.

“They really went for the water theme it seems Luna.” She comments, as while the door is the normal dark wood coloring, the plate with the room number is in the form of a seahorse, dented in the right places to look more 3D while the metal handle of the door is a round knob more reminiscent in the shape of a seashell. Turning the handle, she is quick to open it and usher Luna inside without looking what exactly they may find in it. Though, by Luna’s reaction of being just a tad faster with dragging herself inside, it must be too her liking. And looking up, she can see why that may be so. The room is in one word, peaceful. A small point with against the wall sculpted a fake waterfall where the water trickles slowly from it. Lotus flowers for a Lotine to seek cover in, while the room has grass planted about a meter away from the door everywhere else, and a large rock is near the pond. Flat enough that it could be comfortable to sit on should one decide it. While the lamps above them shine brightly, mimicking a clear bright day as the walls are painted with a forest theme on the ground till about her head and then turned into the sky with clouds painted on the ceiling.

“Okay.. So not quite the beach then like I expected it to be.” Its still something she can work with, better even, as it looks quite a bit like her garden, just smaller in comparison, and with more fake decoration then real. She smiles at the sight of Luna slipping into the water after having dragged herself to it while she wasn’t watching. She can see the relieve on Luna’s face quite plainly. Getting to this place tired her out more then she had actually shown the whole trip. Or perhaps she wasn’t looking too much into it as it was rather obvious that the difficult way of moving around would expand a lot more energy then if she was swimming? Either way. She is glad Luna feels more comfortable now. Walking to the large rock near the pond, she sits down, shrugging of her purple backpack and opening it at the largest zipper, she takes out a small plastic container and sets her bag on the ground.

Opening the container, she stares at the magical berry one of her Leaf-Scatter’s had gifted to her in the autumn. It’s been stored properly all this time so that it wouldn’t have one bit of a chance to rot at some point. She feels like now is the right time to use something like this, she also still got one fish for Luna to hunt after should she be hungry even after this one. It is contained in her bag much like one would have it in a pet shop, just a tough plastic bag that is air tight once its closed, so no water is leaking inside her backpack. “Hey Luna!” She calls out while setting the container aside after having picked up the berry. Luna turns her attention away from the waterfall for a moment, its trickling water hitting her head lightly and making her clearly feel refreshed. “Want something to eat besides those small treats?” She shows her the pink berry.

And sees her perking up at the sight of it, swimming closer to the edge of the pond, she waits patiently, not wanting to get out of the water right away if the stubborn look on her face is any indication. “I’m coming, I’m coming.” She says while chuckling, walking closer to the edge and kneeling down so that she can give the berry to her companion more easily. With her palm wide open, the berry is quick to be snatched out of it, and has Luna swimming to the middle of the pond whereupon she floats on her back lazily. Chewing on the berry one small bite at the time, and licking any stray juices up that don’t get mixed into the water, clearly enjoying herself with it. And that is certainly something she can understand, these types of berries aren’t easy to get, and the Leaf-scatterers she got it from are more likely to play with it till its squished and inedible, then eat it.

The serene expression after taking the last bite from it seems almost bittersweet as Luna turns her attention to her, almost begging her for one more with a similar taste. She gives Luna a apologetic look back, she only brought one along after all, not two. “Maybe next time another one for you?” She says, and starting to stand up to head towards her backpack again. There might still be something she could do with Luna while they wait for the seed to mature into a berry, as she doubts it will be done growing that fast. “Let’s see, what else might we both enjoy doing?” She murmurs while taking out the live fish from her backpack for a moment, she didn’t want to damage it and kill the fish before it can be used. “Oh! This one is perfect!” She couldn’t help but exclaim when she took it out of her backpack.

A chew toy of a weaver. Sure, it might be a bit more appropriate for a canine, but she has seen the sharp teeth of Luna that are perfectly able to rip apart both vegetation and fish whenever she desires. Walking back to the edge of the pond, she shows Luna the chew toy, which she stares curiously at, although in a way that looks like she is uncertain with what exactly she is being shown. Squeezing the toy, “Pheee!” a sharp shrill sound gets emitted, scaring Luna enough to flinch backwards and swim further away. Out of the reach from the toy. Frowning, she looks back at the chew toy in her hand. “It’s not that scary Luna.” Sitting down, she drops the toy in the water, letting it float there and using her hands to make waves in the water in order to bring it closer to Luna. The Lotine swims further away, warily looking at the toy. 13

After a couple minutes of just sitting in the grass and waiting patiently to see what Luna is going to do, her companion finally gets the courage to come closer to it, touching it with one paw before just as quickly swimming backwards. Making it that the toy gets pushed in the direction of the pond’s edge again with the waves she creates. Luna watches the toy intently, her long ears twitching slightly as if trying to hear if it is making any other sounds. “That’s not exactly how the toy works Luna.” She comments to her companion, and when seeing her look in her direction, she waits only long enough for the toy to reach her that she snatches it out of the water. Shaking it slightly dry, and then squeezing it. “Pheew!” The sound it produced this time is more muffled and wet sounding, as water came inside the toy, but it didn’t seem like it scared Luna off nearly as much as the first time.

Slowly Luna swims closer again, curiosity getting the best of her as she focusses on the toy, and see in turn at the sight of the seed having grown a little more within the lotus somehow. She gets distracted from it when Luna touches her knee, looking from her to the toy in her hand. “See? This isn’t so bad. It just makes a noise.” She murmurs as she lowers her hand, squeezing the toy and getting another wet sounding but slightly shrill sound from it. “Shreeh!” She jumped in surprise at hearing Luna bark out a sound so suddenly, almost mimicking the toy when she did. She hadn’t expected that, this whole trip she has mostly been quiet. But Luna didn’t seem to care much about that fact, just staring at the toy with her head tilted slightly to the side, her ears twitching whenever she moved the toy without making a sound yet.
