NOTE: I am forever backtag friendly and absolutely open to doing things from past events that won't really have an effect on things at any given time. For example, if you'd like to do something with Peter aged down or when he was his spider dream guide, etc.

It honestly kind of reminds me of your world, too? Like.... She's told me about all these scary creatures they have where she comes from. One even showed up here last year — this one really freaky guy who steals your soul. [ Peter's description of a Dementor, everybody. But really, Luna's world.... scares him a lot. ""Hufflepuffs"" is a deceptively cute term. ]
Is he still bothering you about your eyes? Oh my god, dude..... [ "It" becomes "he" when he's showing An Emotion about Paimon. Towards Paimon? Peter still doesn't exactly speak to him directly, but he like... talks to him through talking to other people. Like now, he's pretty sure the demon's listening, so have some indirect threats, fucker: ] If he keeps bothering you, I can talk to Luna and ask her to make him stop. I don't know what his problem is.
[ Peter...... you're going to get thrown into the wall if you don't stop this. ]
Yeah. It uh.... this stuff is all a lot to figure out, but it definitely helps talking to someone else about it. Especially someone who understands. [ His tone softens a little, because he is, of course, very aware that Ruby's recently gone through a break-up. And here she is helping him with a bit of romance business. It's quite kind of her. ]
I'll call her soon, see if she wants to do something. [ He and Luna really are together a lot, and it's very comfortable, but it's true that he could do with some more.. well.... intentional acts. Romantic ones? They're slowly starting to navigate that sort of thing.
Of course.... not long after this, everyone ends up at a hotel away from Deerington for like a whole month. Maybe he'll be serenading to Luna in a hotel room. ]

Ruby's tone remains a bit more curious hearing that. Honestly she hadn't really got a tone of detail on the rougher aspects of Luna's world, but with how the girl carried herself she wasn't surprised that they existed.]
Seriously? I hadn't quite pegged it as that dangerous, but yeah-I could see that. Stealing souls definitely sounds freaky deaky. Kind of sounds like a Chill from where I come from- They kind of jump into peoples bodies and possess them.
[There's a nervous laugh hearing that reaction. She knew Peter didn't have a lot of power to do much about this so it wasn't something she particularly liked to bring up to him.]
A little. It's been a couple months since the last time he really outright tried to talk to me. But he's pretty adamant about getting a closer look at some point. they definitely remind him of something about himself-I guess.
I'll keep Luna in mind. He hasn't bugged me recently. [Outside of giving her a christmas present, but Peter doesn't need to know that.]
But I'll let you and Luna know if it becomes a problem. No big deal right now. Don't worry about it too much.
[Ruby's style of leadership boiled down to "Put your teammates first and yourself second." If she could help her friends she felt it was helping her at the same time. Plus she just wanted Peter and Luna to be happy.]
Hey. That's what friends are for, right? If you ever need someone to talk to, just call me up. I'm sure you and Luna will figure this out though. You're both good to each other. That's what counts.
[Her tone brightens up to hear that. The grin can pretty much be heard through the fluid.]
You can do it! I believe in you!
