Quote: Deep in the Fairy Wonderland, a beautiful fountain has been decorated to match the theme. This fountain has been here for years, but there’s something different about it beyond just the little stars and lights that have been set up around it. The fountain is filled with coins from wishes, though there seem to be a few strange, foreign coins. Underneath one of the lower parts of the fountain, hidden in an ornately carved swirl, is a small golden bell with long golden chain dangling from it. If rung, a beautiful, tinkling sound echoes around the fountain as if many little bells are ringing. There is a faint hint of laughter hidden in the chiming bells. Amidst the tinkling bells and laughter, a little voice that sounds far away seems to ask for a wish. Whether or not one is requested, after a moment the song of the bells begins to fade. If the bell is rung again, nothing strange happens and it functions simply as a normal bell however, for the rest of the night, you hear the sound of giggling and tinkling bells following behind you. After the week of having to get used to being human with no powers and severely blunted senses, Hania was overall glad to be back in his normal, magical feline form. However it had proven to be useful to be seen as human rather then a cat so of course he ended up making the small keychain pen gadget that would allow him to spend up to a hour in the form when presented the option, he just hadn't used it yet beyond testing it to make sure that it worked. It wasn't that he was avoiding it, though there was a small part of him that was to be completely honest, the main reason was that there hadn't been a good enough reason to use it. Now however, there might be a good reason to use some, if not all, of the time today as Lulu was going with him to explore the changes done to the park for the festival. At the moment however he was in his normal Mauvian form walking beside Lulu on the pathway towards the fountain. "I'm glad we decided to check the park out today, the weather is perfect for it." The black cat said glancing up at the sky then over to Lulu. "Wouldn't quite be the same if it was raining heavily." The decorations would probably still look nice for the most part but would certainly lose a bit of their charms. Speaking of charms though that reminded the guardian of something. "Oh, I saw this earlier and thought you might like it." A casual flick of his tail had one of the many festival star charms in his grasp, so to speak, to give to Lulu. Leopleuradon Whaaaaa I actually started something? Fake news.

The day when Hania showed up and knocked at her door had been quite the shock. It had to be some sort of dream, she didn't believe it to be true at first. Some six-foot plus 'stranger' was knocking on her door and speaking in Hani's voice and before long he was inside and helping her bake cookies. His height proved quite useful in gathering her supplies from her cabinet. No need to drag her little stool around all by herself.
It had been a few weeks since then and the Star Festival was well under way. When DC threw big parties like this things could always go a little awry. They never sparred on their decorations though and so, of course, she planned on going on a little tour of the park. Along with Hania, though he was his adorable feline self for the time being.
"It really is great outside." The decor sparkled and shimmered in the sunlight and there was a light breeze that made them sway. The breeze also kept them cool despite the sun beating down on them. It also helped that it was starting it's descent for the evening, though it being summer they still had plenty of hours of sunlight left. The lights were starting to stand out more in the shade from the trees though.
"Oh?" She was curious about what it might be and bent down carefully to pick up the pink star charm that Hani offered her. It really was lovely, she'd find something to hand it on for sure. "Thank you, Hani. I love it!" She smiled and reached into her bag to place it somewhere safe. In exchange she pulled out a small tin. One of her famous cookie tins, she always seemed to have it stocked properly wherever she went.
"I just brought some cookies for us to share!"

"I'm glad you like it, hope I got the right color for you." Hania said with a cat grin. What he didn't say was how he got it, let's just say his kleptomania struck again and move on. His ears perked up and he got a pleased look when Lulu mentioned bringing cookies. "That's very thoughtful of you, thank you Lulu." If they weren't currently walking he would have rubbed against her legs in thanks but as it stands he didn't want to possibly trip her up. "Speaking of cookies, we're going to have to cook again some time now that I have that ability whenever for the most part and no energy location draw backs." That was one of the best parts about the human disguise, not being a beacon that said 'Mauvian here come and get me chaos!' like it eventually be once he can access his humaniod form. That and of course actually having hands! The sound of running water drew his attention halfway back to the park after a moment before he shifted it back to Lulu. "Sounds like we are getting closer to the fountain. I wonder how they decorated it." He was sure it would fit in with the rest of the fantastic decoration all over the park but was curious to see if it surpassed it. Though no matter how well it was done up, he privately thought that is still wouldn't hold a candle to how beautiful Lulu was, especially with how well she fit in with all the fairy theme.

"It's absolutely the purr-fect color for me!" Lulu was a fairly easy person to please when it came to trinkets. She did tend to receive a lot of adorable pink things as gifts and that had never bothered her. The fact that she got a gift from Hani at all made her very happy. She would treasure it no matter how he came across it. She'd have to think of something besides cookies to give him in return.
"It was so fun having you around to help with the baking. I'd love to have you in my kitchen again." As soon as it came out of her mouth she realized that could have been taken another way and her face lit up like a Christmas tree.
"Y-yes! The fountain is right ahead! Let's go!" Anything to change the breeze past that little awkward moment, she took off in a little sprint toward the lovely fountain. It sparkled and glimmered just like the rest of the park. The water reflecting the lights did give it that extra magical look though. It was obvious that people had been using it as a wishing fountain during the event, several coins rested in the bottom. She reached into her bag and pulled out a little change purse and pulled out two coins.
"Would you like to make a wish?" She offered Hani one of her coins.

Hania couldn't help but give a cat grin and a laugh at Lulu's pun. "I'm paws-itively glad I got it for you then since you like it." And he was indeed really happy that she liked it, he would hate to get something for her that she didn't enjoy. Maybe next time he could give her something with a complementary color to go with the pink? Food for thought later anyway. The black cat tripped a bit himself at the combination of Lulu's words and her blush, being once again very glad that cats can't blush. Not that he thought she meant the other meaning but it was, uh, thought provoking and he had to give his head a bit of a shake to try and focus. "Well then I'd be there with bells on." He briefly crossed his eyes after he said the saying, realizing it could imply that he was wearing nothing but bells after the double meaning of Lulu's own words but just cleared his throat and once again tried to get his thoughts less distracting. He gratefully followed after her when she darted towards the fountain, easily keeping up with her pace and glad for the topic sticking. When it was in sight he gave it a once over and was pleased to see that it did indeed fit well in the rest of the decorations. Hania carefully leapt onto the fountains edge and peered down before looking over at Lulu, giving her a thankful look. "Sure, thank you for the coin." He thought carefully about what wish he wanted but his eyes kept sliding over towards the young woman next to him and seeing her here among the magical like settings had his thoughts derailing once again. After a moment though he tossed the coin in, wish made in his heart and a soft look for Lulu. "You fit right in with the setting, my dear." He couldn't help but say after.

The thought of Hania baking in her kitchen with bells on of all things, somehow made the blush on her face worse. And than becoming very aware of the rising heat in her cheeks made it worse again before she tried to clear her thoughts and calm her beating heart. Focus on a wish, a wish for anything at all. Nope, her thoughts wouldn't be distracted it seemed. Until eventually she threw the coin into the water completely embarrassed by what her wish was. She'd never tell that to anyone.
Shortly after she heard the splash for her coin falling into the water it was followed by the splash of Hani's coin as well. Hania's comment brought the blush back to her face, but she was in more control of it now. Nothing could light her up the way her wish had. Her shyness did cause her to glance away though, toward the fountain. That's when she noticed the golden bell at the bottom, center of the fountain. It seemed like a weird decoration and suddenly her mind was on bells again.
Since she couldn't come up with a reply to Hania, she changed the subject instead. A common tactic for her, she hoped she'd get over that eventually. "What do you think that does?" She pointed toward the bells and it's chain. While she was using it as a distraction, she was also honestly curious.
Despite her size she really thought she could reach out for the bell. She sat on the edge of the fountain and started to reach for it. She was so close and scooted just a bit too far, she started to slip and was prepared for the worst when suddenly she felt arms around her. She glanced back and saw Hania. Not a cat, but the totally tall, totally handsome man had caught her.
"Just a little further then?" She asked with a blush. There was some adjusting, and before long she could reach far enough to ring the bell. There were chimes all around and the sound of laughter. As she was pulled back to safety, wrapped in warm arms, she could hear a voice asking for a wish. What more could she wish for? She just wanted to be happy. Happy in the arms that wrapped around her and she hugged him back. She completely lost herself in the moment.

Rather used to Lulu's change in subjects, Hania didn't give much thought to it now as the young woman pointed out the bells on the fountain. One ear perked up and his head tilted a bit as he now too wondered just what the bells were for. "Maybe they are meant to jingle in the wind or if the water hits them?" He said a moment later. All thoughts of pondering of what the decoration was for was derailed when Lulu started to try and reach over them. Normally this wouldn't be a problem but since her higher wasn't quite enough to reach the bells meant she was started to slip? There was no thought in his head as magic activated and he lunged forwards to catch her. Hand's on her waist, braid having stung forwards from the force of his lunge to hang between them, he had manged to catch her before she took a dip. "Careful now." He said with a grin then helped lift her up. As soon as the bells started to ring and laughter filled the air he just as carefully pulled her back, though off the fountain and into his arms instead of just resting her on the side to sit. The grin turned into a soft smile as he gazed down at Lulu, not even the voice whispering in his head got him looking away for how or why it was there. Besides, he got his wish right here, why would he need more? Well there was one thing but instead of following it though completely he planted a kiss on her head.

Lulu had her eyes focused on the fountain full of wishes. With her arms around Hania's waist she let herself get lost in thought for quite some time. Thinking about everything she'd been through in the last few years of her life. It had certainly been dangerous at times. But, it had also brought with it so many new friends and that was what mattered. It had also brought her closer to a certain person. It wasn't easy and it was certainly complicated, but she didn't want to be anywhere else.
She turned her head and looked up, trying to find the right words to put her thoughts and wishes. Before she could say anything though, gentle lips kissed her forehead. Hania's feelings weren't exactly a secret. She just, hadn't been sure what to do about them for a long time. If it made any sense at all. Suddenly that didn't really matter anymore. She didn't want to dwell on the future anymore. She didn't care what anyone thought. She only cared about what she wanted.
She stood on her tip toes and when that wasn't enough of a reach she brought up one hand to gently guide Hani down, until she could press a gentle kiss on his lips. Once she was done, she kept her eyes on his. "I've been wanting to do that for a while now. I just haven't had the courage." Her face was definitely red with her blush, but she wasn't shying away from it for once.

He had spent so long thinking over his feelings for her and what feelings she might have for him but had never been completely sure if she could ever want to act on them. He spent most of his life as a cat after all and he had been very hesitant to bring it up for that very reason. It wasn't until he had spent that week as a human, and then got the blueprint to make the charm to allow him to do so for short times again, that he had even truly started to think of that conversation. But then she had looked up and before he could get lost in her beautiful eyes she had pulled him down into a kiss. Even though his brain short circuited, his body reacted and he kissed her back until she pulled away and he had to resist chasing after to kiss her again. "Well, I'm glad you found the courage because you just granted my wish." His face was red like hers he was giving her a soft smile. He brought one hand to brush a stray strand of her face from her face only to caress her cheek when he was done. "I have been wanting to kiss you since the moment we met, though I'm sure that sounds a bit weird."
