After some food and more socializing, Luna made due on her promise to show Eli the library. She led him through the halls of Avengers Mansion, until they reached the library.

"This," said Luna, "This is were I spend a large majority of my time. I can often be found here. ...I have considered moving my bed here, sometimes. But I don't know if that would go over well with the rest of the team." She blushed. "Sorry...you wanted me to help you find books on vampires?"

	"Monday." Eli says, calling her bluff. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can wait, Luna. I think you would be worth the wait." Eli says. "And what should I bring to dinner, as I would not feel right letting you do all of the cooking without providing something or other." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And she had been doing so well with the not blushing. "Thank you, Eli." She pondered over that for a minute. "Maybe a bottle of wine? And a pie or something? Though I don't mind doing all the cooking. It would be a full-day project." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If you are going to cook all day, then I will bring wine and pie. What is your favorite kind of pie? I will get one for us to share, and maybe with some ice cream." he says. "And when you manage to get some of that pie on your face, I will kindly help you clean it up." he nods. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cherry, though apple goes best with Thanksgiving dinner." At that, her face turned crimson. "I...I..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course, I would only help you clean it up if you allowed it, Luna." Eli smiles, turning back to his book, but still smiling. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes...right."Luna still looked a little flustered. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-02 02:35 am UTC (link)
	"What is your favorite number?" Eli asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-02 02:38 am UTC (link)
	"Twenty-three," Luna said. "And yours?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-02 02:45 am UTC (link)
	"Thirty-two." Eli chuckles. "Why twenty-three?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-02 02:48 am UTC (link)
	"I just like the number twenty-three," Luna said. "There is no other real explanation other my just liking it. Why thirty-two?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-02 03:18 am UTC (link)
	"Just because it's the opposite of twenty-three." Eli says. "No, the real reason is that I learned that Baskin-Robbins has thirty-one flavors, but I think thirty-two would even them out wonderfully. My suggestion was not well-received in any of the parlors I visited, though. I don't understand why." Eli says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-02 03:21 am UTC (link)
	"There's a rumor that there are actually thirty-two flavors, and if you figure out what the secret thirty-second flavor is, as a bribe, they give you free ice cream for life, in exchange for never telling the secret." Luna let out a sigh of mock-disappointment. "Sadly, I have yet to figure out what this mystery flavor is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-02 03:36 am UTC (link)
	Eli looks at Luna sidelong at her pronoucment of the prize for guessing the thirty-second flavor and considers this for a moment. "How interested are you in receiving free ice-cream for life?" Eli asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-02 03:39 am UTC (link)
	"Fairly interested," Luna said. "I do enjoy ice cream." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-02 03:56 am UTC (link)
	"Perhaps we should work upon this together. You have experience in this area that I do not, so I would like to help you in your endeavor...for a small share of the profits." Eli says. "Shall we make a deal to work toward free ice cream for life?" he asks, holding out a hand to shake. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-02 04:08 am UTC (link)
	"Yes," said Luna taking his hand and shaking it. "This will be a most fruitful alliance. With free ice cream to show for it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-02 05:08 am UTC (link)
	Eli shakes Luna's hand, but does not immediately let go of it. "Yes, I think it will be. Perhaps we will be able to remember this with fondness someday in the future." Eli smiles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-02 05:21 am UTC (link)
	Luna smiled. "Yes. Perhaps we will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-03 12:54 am UTC (link)
	Eli stands, still holding Luna's hand. "I have enjoyed spending this time with you tonight, Luna. This was the perfect way to come home." Eli says. "May I see you again soon?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-03 01:02 am UTC (link)
	Luna stood up, smiling. "I would like that very much, Eli." She said, squeezing his hand lightly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	blinkandmissme 2011-02-03 01:22 am UTC (link)
	Eli takes a moment to kiss Luna's hand. "You have been most kind this evening, but I should be going. Perhaps I will check out this library you suggested and find a few books to read." he smiles. "In the meantime, I shall concoct a plan or us to discover the thirty-second flavor." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	i_feel_you 2011-02-03 01:34 am UTC (link)
	The kiss to her hand turned her cheeks the slightest shade of pink. "I enjoyed this very much, Eli," Lua said. "And I look forward to hearing this plan." She slipped him a small piece of paper with her cellphone on it. "Just in case you need to reach me and I'm not here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eli smiles and takes the number, reminding himself to ask Kalypso for instruction on using cellphones. When one could use telepathy to speak to people, cellphones seemed cumbersome and ineffective. "If you have to go on a mission before I can call you again, I wish you good luck and safe, speedy return." Eli smiles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
