Oh god that was LOVELY I may be crying.

The moon. ;____________;

[thickets]

<3 <3 <3 Thank you!!!

The Moon is quite sweet, huh? It's okay! They'll see each other again!

[silent_fields]

I know, I have no idea why I got all worked up.

I hope you can follow up on this sometime. I'd love to read more, even with the tears.

[thickets]

Aw, well, sometimes I have the most fun reading things that make me cry. ;) It's actually a wonderful compliment. <3

I'm working on a few ideas for a sequel ... I'll see where they take me. :)

Yayyyy! The Moon had a cupcake!! :D This was adorable. I imagine him as a white-haired and more wooden Richmond, actually. :D And BONUS POINTS for getting some Darkplace in there! Also that THE MOON WORE MOON BOOTS! Perfect. :)

[thickets]

Delicious cupcakes <3 If I got to choose what my first food to eat ever would be it would definitely be a cupcake. XD

Yeah, Richmond's voice is quite close to the Moon's, isn't it? It's the same register, just the Moon is of course dopier sounding. (He also almost sounds French sometimes, I don't know what's up with that.)

Hee, yay for Darkplace ... that just sort of happened, I didn't mean for it to, but it worked.

The idea of the Moon walking around London in baggy pajamas and silver Moon Boots is just ... wow.

That may have been the cutest thing I've ever read. Oh my gosh. That was lovely. I also liked how you made the Moonstruck Man a Julian character :)

[thickets]

Thank you so much! Of course he would be a Julian character, heh. They will always find each other in whatever incarnation~ ;) I kind of imagine Lewis as looking a bit like Paul from Lucky Break.

Wow, that was amazing. At first it was all Clangers with the humans planting flags and not being friendly. And then it was all Stardust with the Moon falling to Earth and trying to walk.

And then it was completely unique. I laughed loads of times, at the moon boots and his cupcake adventure and the nasty ol' trout. Beautiful! But what a long time they have to wait until they see each other again.

[thickets]

yeah, I did think of Stardust while I was writing it! XD I had forgotten about the learning to walk stuff, but I must have had it in the back of my mind.

I'm so glad it made you laugh. XD Yeah, it is quite a long time, but the waiting is worth it. (And hopefully it is three years and not six. Silly Moon.)

The Moon eating a cupcake! <3 <3 <3

This is lovely. Moonstruck Man is very patient. :O

[thickets]

Mmmm cupcakes. Much better than fish fingers.

Yeah, he is quite patient! XD I guess you learn patience when you spend all your free time watching the sky, heh. And you'd have to be quite patient to put up with the Moon.
