"The Lantern..? Odd... do you think it's..." Rasticore watched as the Flora, otherwise known as 'Toffee', make a slow, dragging craw towards the lantern, brushing right past his feet and legs, almost as if it didn't even really notice them. "The woman or the child..." he eventually finished his sentence as the Flora finally passed them, nearing the lantern with a low hiss of anger.

"Right.. Central Mewni it is then." He shook off his general concern with the fact that the Flora didn't even pay them any attention before turning towards the Castle area, at first taking a brisk walk before letting it become a strong run towards the area, making sure that Avarius would stay upon his shoulder. "So! Where in Central Mewni do you think 'the shop' is?" He asked as he started to scale a few of the building for a better view of the area, seeing the old, burnt down, area that made Central Mewni quickly approaching.

Celena watched little star play with the creature, she found it quite cute and reassuring that she and the 'little ones', as she called all of these small demon-like creatures, got along so well. She was actually a little surprised when she saw Star craw onto her lap all on her own, before gently placing her arms around the child and looking back towards Brudo, happy. She was still confused as to what this 'blushing' that he mentioned was, but, the way he gently pulled her to him, and the way he rested his soft feathered hands onto her cheeks, made her believe that it was a good thing. He seemed to like it when she blushed, and she had to agree, she even started to feel more lifelike, though she couldn't understand why, all of a sudden it felt like something was beating in her chest, but she didn't want to bring it up just yet. Granted her expressions usually gave away what she was feeling, so it was easy to notice that something within herself had caught her attention, but she gently shook it off as Brudo mentioned the Astral Clock tower. It was a place she had never been to before, but she knew of, it was because of someone who was there that prompted Brudo to create her after all. "The Astral Clock tower, Master Brudo..? Isn't that where..." she trailed off, it was then that she realized that she never knew the name of the woman who used to guard the place there, but she knew that he once cared deeply for this woman.

She looked a little confused as she noticed Brudo leave, only to return moments later with the Rakuyo that the blue-haired hunter used to use. She took a moment to register what he was intending before it clicked, that weapon that he retrieved would be the same weapon that Star would use when she was old enough, and ready to fight in the dream. She looked back towards Brudo with a soft smile and gave a little bow, as to not squeeze Star or the playful creature in her lap. "Of course Master Brudo, it would be.." she stopped, something told her that perhaps what she was going to say wouldn't be quite the right thing to say. After only a moment she nodded and smiled warmly towards Brudo. "I would happy to. We'll be here for your return, Master Brudo."
