Today was treat day.
It was humbling when such iconic creatures nosed at Luna's pale hands in the morning reminding her that today was the day that they got their damn treats. It was also humbling when she showed up to her post empty handed and she got to watch several sets of eyes go into a full pout. Sure she had to lean in and squint a bunch to get the full picture, the world wasn't much except for coloured fluff to her, but... She could tell. They were pouting.
Which was why, even though it was almost noon, she had her cloak on, hood over her head to keep the sun off her face. Was she sweating? Absolutely. Luna was extremely uncomfortable. She could feel the sweat trickle down her spine and soak through her shirt. Luna knew that the second she got back she'd have to take a bath and change.
Today was her lucky day though. Luna didn't have to travel too far to collect her treats for her drakelings, which meant there would be minimal wandering around and minimal staring. A superstitious people, Luna didn't enjoy being out in the midst of people too often. Despite being a born and bred Adelan, she was, to her dismay, extremely pale. Her hair was so devoid of pigment it was white, her eyes so blue that light hurt them, she'd had her own fairshare of teasing growing up so, now, she made means to cover up.
Basket in hand, fruits piled into it. She'd exchanged money with the vendor before fixing her hood and tucking her un-basket-ed hand into her pocket. A hesitant peek at the sky, eyes half closed to do so, and she gauged herself to have only been away for half an hour or so. It would be lunch time when she got back, and then bath time for the smallest of the brood. Of course, all that would happen after treats.
So distracted with her thoughts Luna didn't notice that the fuzzy thing in front of her was another person. Which would explain why she unceremoniously walked into them, lost her footing and ended up on her butt. Her hood fell off her head, exposing her pale head of hair. The incident wasn't without a few spectators and, thankfully, only a few of the apple like fruits managed to escape the basket.
"I'm so sorry!" She cried, hand instantly groping for her hood, eyes shut tightly more in an effort to avoid the pain of the bright lights than because of it. Luna quickly moved to rest on her knees to right herself before she fixed her hood and looked down at the set of feet beside her, "I wasn't looking where I was going, I deeply apologize."
