Eris appears in the living room.

"Hello Eris. I will be back really shortly. I just need to take Harmonia to Claire's okay?" Luna says before turning to Harmonia. "Alright, ready to go Harmonia?"

“Okay” Eris says

"Yeah" Harmonia says

Luna holds out her hand to Harmonia. Harmonia takes it and they both disappear headed to Claire’s.

"Eris.. Is everything ready?" Thrall asks.

“Ye” says Eris

"Good!"

And just as quickly as Luna left, she reappears in the living room minus one Harmonia Reeds.

"Awwright. Apologies for that. Being a taxi is fun." Luna says excitedly.

“It’s okay” Eris says

"So what are we doing today? I've been looking forward to this all week." Luna smiles and blushes.

“We are watching the new Scream!” Eris announces with cheer

"Heck yeah!" Luna says

"Ooo! Sounds fun! Ah.. Are we doing it right now? on such short notice? I was going to... change back into my formal outfit, to make the experience nicer for you two." Thrall asks, seemingly confused on timing of things unknown to Luna at the time.

“Huh? I'm confused, Thrall." Luna responds.

"...I was. Uh." He looks to Eris, seemingly a bit nervous. "The plan for me to serve you during the date is still going, right? If you request food or... wine or anything. Orr was I not supposed to..? ...Sorry."

"That would be absolutely wonderful." Luna says, trying to cheer up Thrall. "Thank you."

“It’s my fault, I should’ve explained my plan better to you.” Eris says

"It's fine! ..Luna, you'd like me to do that? I'd want confirmation from both of you.." Thrall requests

"Whatever Eris wants to do. I'm quite flexible." Luna says

Eris thinks for a bit, Thrall waits for her response. And Luna does her usual vibe.

“Okay. Luna would you mind going to a movie and then to a restaurant or vise versa?” Eris asks

"Movie then dinner sounds wonderful. Thank you Eris." Luna responds

Thrall perks up. "When do I come in? I'd love to help, genuinely!" He desperately wants to help this date go as good as possible ok.

“The Restaurant Half! You said something about owning a suit?”

"And I figured the movie is about an hour and a half long, which will give you extra time to prepare, Thrall." Luna adds

“And you’ll have the help of some of my friends.” Eris explains

"Yes! Ok, that sounds great! Let me... Just, get..." He gets up and starts to head out of the room, but the lights flicker and he vanishes!

"He's so cool!" Luna says, excitedly

“He really is” Eris says

"Hahaha, anyway, what's the plan Eris?"

Eris holds her hand out to Luna “We go to the movie”

Luna takes her hand, excitedly "Heck yeah. But wait, it's an apocalypse, are there movie theaters left?"

“There are, just needed to fix one up.” Eris and Luna disappear.

--

Eris and Luna appear in the lobby of a movie theater. “Here we are!”

Luna looks around in utter amazement. This is... the most amazing thing she's ever seen.

"Holy crap Eris, you didn't have to go through all of the trouble… This is... amazing."

“You’re worth the trouble. Anyway, Let’s get going!” Eris heads to the counter, another Eris hands her some popcorn, snacks, drinks, and wishes her luck.

"Thank you! Also uh does Thrall know where to go?"

“I’m pretty sure.” Eris leads Luna to a empty theater, some trailers of movies never to be released are playing.

"Oh my gosh, this is amazing." Luna can't help but tear up a little. No one has ever done such an amazing thing for her before. Not since... n-no, she's gone. She rubs her collar for good luck.

Eris leads Luna to their seats as the final trailer finishes playing.

"Thank you. Let's have some fun haha." She sits down and munches on the popcorn. So good.

As the movie is playing, Luna gets a message from Terminal asking where Thrall needs to go. She leans over to Eris and whispers "Hey Eris, what's the restaurant you want Thrall to go to? He's not sure, so he's asked Terminal to ask me."

“Oh,” Eris snaps. “There we go”

"Thank goodness." Luna focuses on the movie, something she was looking forward to even before moving out here. Something she probably wouldn't have seen solo though...

---

In a very cozy restaurant nearby, There are multiple Eris’s at work getting the place ready.

Thrall looks around at all of the different Eris's (Erisi?), nervously adjusting his tie. "Hello, everyone."

All but one continue working. The one who isn’t working walks up to Thrall. “Eris Prime said you would becoming by, Welcome!”

She can't see it but he do be smiling tho. "Let's get right to business! What can I do to help? What do you need me for?"

“Well we need someone to be a waiter, would you like to help with that?” The Eris clone asks

"Oh, perfect! I'm already dressed for the occasion. But, until they get here, anything else I might be able to do? Anything at all?" Thrall asks, eager to make their date perfect.

“Not really” The Eris says

"...oh alright. Anywhere to wait? Like.. A staff break room orr..?"

“Yeah!” Eris 2 points to the break room. “Over there.”

"Alright! Call me when I'm needed!" Thrall says, as he heads over to it and enters.

There is an abandoned phone in the very fancy and cozy break room.

"...Oh..?" He walks up to it and picks it up, examining it. "... I'll just…” He pockets it, a surprise tool that'll help him later.

--

The movie ends as the credits roll.

"Ahhh that movie was amazinggggg!!!" Luna says, having probably the best day of her life

“It was definitely a great movie” Eris says

"Thank you thank you thank you Eris" Luna says.

“You’re welcome!”

"Like I can't even begin to show my appreciation" Luna turns to Eris, god she's cute asf.

Eris blushes “awwww!”

Luna exhales, trying to calm herself down from being a goof but at the same time, who can blame her?

Eris can’t, she’s blushing like a goof too.

Luna is just full blush atm

“Sooooooo, want to go to that restaurant?” Eris asks

"That sounds great" Luna gets up from her chair.

Eris gets up from her chair and extends her hand to Luna. “Shall we?”

Luna holds her hand uwu "We shall~"

Eris and Luna disappear.

--

Back at the restaurant, Eris and Luna appear in the lobby while Thrall is chilling in the staff room, waiting for an Eris to call him over. Luna looks around the restaurant, looks really cozy.

Eris 2 leads Eris and Luna to their table as Eris 3 tells Thrall it’s time.

He quickly launches up and hurries over

"Holy what, how do you have so many Erises? Erisi??" Luna asks, unsure what the plural form of Eris is.

He stops, looking to Eris 3. "Usual waiter routine? Nothing special?"

“Pretty much, but you can improvise” Eris 3 says.

“I can make smoke clones, it’s kinda like Shadow Clone Jutsu.” Eris explains to Luna

"haha that's amazing!” Luna is having the time of her life, but holy crap she's overwhelmed in the best possible sense. She is so incredibly generous and cute asf too. Luna cannot stop blushing and smiling.

Eris’ tail is in a heart shape.

"Alright! Alright, alright. Right on that!" He adjusts his tie and walks over to their table, standing up straight with his arms held behind his back. He speaks like he has a genuine smile on his face. "Good evening, you two! Hopefully you found the place alright. I'll be getting your menus in just a moment, but first, what would you like to drink?" ...very professional.

Luna is... actually unsure about that. Normally she just gets water but like she can't be boring here. "uhhh lemme see here, I'll take a Coke."

He's dressed in his formal attire. Like when they first met but minus the jacket btw. "Diet or regular?"

"Regular please". At this moment, she only just noticed who the waiter is.

“I’ll take a regular coke as well please” Eris says.

"Just a moment, then!" He hurries off towards the kitchen? Thrall is actually unsure where to go. He walks into the kitchen presumably full of Erisi. "Eris Prime and Luna both request a regular Coca-Cola! I'd assume a large, if you do various sizes here."

Eris 5 hands Thrall two large Cokes on a tray.

"Thank you." He takes the tray and goes to the front desk to see if that's where the menus are. There do be menus there. He grabs two, returning to the table. He approaches, balancing the tray on one hand and holding the menu in the other, then hands them their drinks and the menus. "Here you go, Madams. I'll give you a moment to look over your menus and then return so you can order! Enjoy the soda."

Annnd then he walks off! No more following the demon waiter smh focus on the cute catgirl couple (otherwise known as the CCC!)

Luna looks over the menu. It’s various cat themed food items.

Holy crap it's a cat cafe for a cute catgirl couple, otherwise known as a CC CCC "Oh my gods this is amazing!!!" Oh she's doing a heckin purr at the moment, also trying to curl her tail into a heart.

Eris purrs as well.

She's having difficulty concentrating to the various cat themed choices for there is a truly wonderful woman right in front of her, stealing her attention. Nevertheless, she found what she's interested in eating uwu.

Eris picks something at random, only paying attention to the pretty woman in front of her.

He walks over and looks between the two of them, ringing the bell on the table to get their attention. “Have you two decided?” He takes out a pen and notepad to write down their orders.

"owo uhhh y-yeah, my apologies Thrall. Erm, I would like.." She points to a random picture on the menu. "this one." Luna completely lost track of what she intended to order. No matter, she's just truly happy to be here with Eris.

He writes that menu item down.

“Uhhh shit um I’ll have the same” Eris says, just as flustered as Luna is.

"Alright. I'll leave you two to it!" He goes back to the kitchen to hand in the order but let's keep watching the CCC because they're cute!

Luna returns to staring at her love, purrs intensify, and her tail is heart shaped too. poggers.

Eris does the same.

As if the Erisi were magic, the meals are almost instantly prepared to perfection Thrall brings it out to them, while thinking the CCC are SO CUTE!!!! "Your orders, Madams."

Luna has no idea what the hell she pointed to. it could've been a sprig of parsley, for all she knows. As long as Eris is here, that’s what matters.

They ordered the Chimken Meow-fredo.

Luna looks down at the plate of chimkin meow-fredo on the table. While she'd love to continue staring at her love, the amazing scent of her food snaps her out of it temporarily. She must eat. UwU

She takes a bite and oh my Goddess this is absolutely incredible! She cannot help but say "mmm chimken"

Thrall walks away and leaves them to their devices.

Eris has some of it as well, not much because she is focused on the pretty woman.

Luna is heavily focused on the wonderfully generous and pretty woman in front of her.

Thrall mutters “Come on.. You gotta. Tell her you love her..!”

Luna...does something that normally takes a fuckton of guts, but feels completely comfortable doing so in front of Eris. She takes a deep breath and begins to speak.

YEAHHHHH! Thrall punches the air!

"So uh, I just uh w-wanted to say um..." Eris cannot see this, but Luna is doing a heckin 👉 👈 under the table, she's so fuckin nervous. "Uhhh I-I-Love-..you Eris."

Oh gods oh fuck. HELP. She feels so fucking awkwardddddddddd. Luna is blushing even harder now... like critical levels of blush and cute and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa happening right now internally.

Normally, Luna is the erm... well she's not dominant in the slightest. So um, to do that in front of the other wonderfully pretty catgirl she knows... that took some serious guts and focus.

Eris leans forward, and kisses Luna on the lips. Luna leans into it. She is a whole mess of blushing and tearing up and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa and overwhelmed wiith emotions and aaaa.

“I love you too” Eris is blushing so hard right now pink smoke is coming off her.

"I love you Eris" Luna tears up.

“I love you Luna” Eris gets up and hugs Luna.

Luna leans into it and sobs. She's finally found love once more.

Eris continues hugging.

Same for Luna. Hugs!!

"Thank you for everything love" Luna says composing herself enough to speak.

“No need to thank me, your love is all the thanks I need.”

Luna feels the need to cry, but she stays strong. "okie thank you Eris"

“You’re welcome love”

"Just glad to be here with you." Oh she be sobbing. been far too long since she's had someone to love.

“I am too”

"Anyway, shall we head back home? It's getting kinda late, unless there's something else you wanna do uwu" Luna asks, in her usual uwuness.

“Yeah, let’s head back home” Eris says

"Sounds good to me love."

Luna holds out her hand, Eris holds it, and they disappear heading back to Harmonia’s

--

Thrall watches them disappear, turning to one of the Erisi. "...shift over?"

“Yep.” Eris 4 says

"Great! You all were a pleasure to work with." He offers a hand to shake :D.

--

Realizing she forgot to bring Thrall home, Luna reappears in the restaurant. "Hey Thrall, ready to go home?"

Eris 4 shakes Thrall’s hand and then dissolves into pink smoke.

He turns to her after the hand shake, walking over. ",,Oh, hello! Thank you for remembering me... I could've gone home by myself, though! After aroundd.. 6 or so, I'm basically free to teleport wherever! I need darkness, that's all." Thrall says. "...Thank you still. How was your date?"

"It was quite gay... I-I mean wonderful. The food was delicious and Eris is absolutely beautiful and pretty and hot and aaaaaaaa and I... confessed my love to her. And she accepted and... She trails off, blushing Hard.

"I know! I saw! Good for you! I'm proud of you. It takes a lot of confidence to do something like that. I just know she loved it. You made her week, no, month!" Thrall says, congratulating Luna on a job well done.

Luna exhales a bit. "Normally, I'm not really able to build up the confidence to do something like that. I've been on many dates with wonderful people, but Eris made me feel something I hadn't in years. Not since... the previous love of my life."

Luna looks a little forlorn

"And...ever since she passed, I never thought I'd find someone else. I stopped trying. Spent years...basically withering away. Alone." She instinctively touches the blue spiked collar on her neck, something her previous love gave her before passing away. "But now I found Eris, and she's absolutely amazing."

Thrall knows. He knows and he's absolutely fucking heartbroken. "I'm so, so proud. I'm so happy for you." He crouches down and hugs her close, very warm. "You're going to make each other happy. It's... very important to have someone at your back. Eris is so powerful and trustworthy, with your smarts? You'll be unstoppable together! Eris is so lucky to have you." He sheds a few tears but quickly and (thankfully) unnoticed by Luna, wipes them off his face.

Luna can sense something is off about all of this however. She doesn't know what, but it's weird. Even so, she keeps mum about it. Luna exhales, finally releasing a lot of the stress she's felt over the course of three months in this Hell. “Anyway, ready to head back?" Luna extends her hand to Thrall.

He unhugs her taking her hand. "Yeah, I'm ready. But, when we get back, can I have your help with something?"

"Sure. I would be happy to." Luna and Thrall teleport home.
