Moonlark Madness: We Meet Again
“Well, kiddo,” Grady squeezed Luna’s shoulder and tousled her hair, “if you need anything, we’re just downstairs. Sophie should be home soon, so you two can meet each other.” He smiled at her, and Edaline kissed her forehead. Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa. So much… affection. What was this? Luna felt a slight shudder at the word family. Welp. This was why it was a trial period.
“Mm,” she watched them leave the room and then locked eyes with Tam. “You knew, didn’t you? You knew these were Sophie’s parents?”
He gave her a weak smile. “Well—yeah…”
Moonlark Madness: Unwelcome Reminders
Mr Forkle closed his eyes and let out a breath. “You were my brother’s doing, Luna.”
“Sure, blame it on a dead guy,” she said bitterly.
Tam gave her a startled look.
Moonlark Madness: Atlantis
“Hey, Bangs Boy!” A voice and face that were familiar but not familiar enough came onto the tiny screen. “Whatcha doing?”
Tam only glared.
“Right. Not too talkative, are we, Shady Mc Shade?” Luna saw the blond-haired boy she’d called Gremlin nod. “Well. What’s an astronaut’s favorite part of the keyboard?”
“I wasn’t aware astronauts had a—”
“The SPACE bar!” Gremlin exclaimed.
“Don’t ever hail me again.”
“I love ya too, Tammy Boy.”
Moonlark Madness: Ruckleberries and Reminiscing
“Hey, I just think you guys owe her an apology, is all,” Keefe argued.
“I’m not apologizing to her,” Sophie said firmly. “She’s obnoxious.”
“Must run in the family,” Luna muttered without thinking.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” she snapped.
“…Nothing.”
“Anyhow, let me apologize for her,” Keefe said, his ice-blue eyes flashing with a mischievous light. “We’re very sorry for harassing you, and I’m even more sorry that you had to witness that Fitzphie moment.”
Fitz rolled his eyes, but he seemed humored.
Moonlark Madness: A Mistake
“My goodness, when will you two give up?” Luna propped up her pillows and leaned back. “How many times have your little Telepath tricks bounced off my barriers? Twice?”
Sophie scowled at her.
“Oh, right. Sorry. Three times. Or was it four? It’s so effortless I can’t keep count.” Luna smiled sweetly when Fitz clenched his jaw. “Let me tell you, I’m impressed. What’s your total Cognate mental strength? Ten? Eleven? Because it’s definitely higher than your IQ.” Her lips curled into a taunting smile.
