They arrived in the courtyard, filled with the purple flowers of thistles. It was such a pretty place, Stirling, and honestly, she felt so utterly and completely proud of it. “So…yeah. This is Stirling, my Wonder. You have one too, and it’s pretty simple? To get there, it’s like, reciting a poem…but. This is Lysithea, it’s a moon? One of Jupiter’s moons, so like, the sky is totally different which is neat. Um…Yeah! So I have a castle of my own, which…makes me sound way cooler than my normal life…I actually…kind of lived up here for a while when I was…”
She scratched the back of her head, shrugging almost helplessly. “Having some troubles. But I don’t have to live here now…so that’s good. But I still like to visit. It’s beautiful here…and I love the thistles, they’re beautiful…but be careful with them, they’re…pokey.”
Stirling looked at her friend for a moment and then extended her arms, laughing as she twirled around, her skirts lifting as she did so. “I know you have questions, and you can be as loud as you want here. Nobody can hear us. Nobody can hurt us here. It’s totally safe.”

It was almost dizzying, going from a normal field on earth to a field of thistles apparently in space and all, but Weser did her best to keep up and take in what information Brook– Stirling was giving her. The look of awe and wonder on her face was likely plain as day, though. She couldn't help but take a look around as opposed to focusing on her friend as she spoke, which would have been the more polite thing to do, but well…
Weser leaned down to inspect one of the thistles when she was warned to be careful, and noted their "pokey" nature almost immediately. While the idea of frolicking in a field of pretty flowers was attractive, these made that quite a bit less so, so she abandoned the idea as she turned back to her friend.
She followed her lead and twirled about, laughter bubbling up out of her before she let go and stumbled back a few steps, thankfully keeping her balance so she didn't fall and get poked by the pretty flowers.
"You have a castle?" was the first question that tumbled out of her, because it was admittedly a dream of hers to decorate inside of such a building. But there were others, of course, and they would come in due time. But for now, this was what she was curious about.
"Can you show me?"

Stirling laughed, nodding and turning around, gesturing to the large building behind them. “Ta-da! It’s still not great, but it’s mine. And I love it. It’s…honestly it’s better now that I’m not living here, I can come and actually enjoy it…not that I didn’t before! It just…it’s fun to like. Camp? Rough it when it’s…not a necessity? I don’t know, I’m sure I’m not making sense. I hope that you have a castle too! That would be so cool!”
Reaching out, she took hold of Weser’s hand and tugged her along. “Come on! We can go explore. It’s messy, and old. But everything is safe inside. I’ve never like. Fallen through the floor or anything like that, so you don’t have to worry about that! There’s some really neat tapestries in here with unicorns…oh! Shoot I was so excited about everything, Lysithea is the Senshi of Unicorns so like…They’re a big part of everything that I’ve seen? Like, her symbol? If you look at it it’s kind of like a unicorn…and!” Stirling summoned her rapier, showing it off, giggling. “This is like. Super unicorn like! Plus…we get to look amazing. I’m not going to lie but I think we’re the cutest kinds of Knights that are out there.”

Wait. She could possibly have one of these?
The idea had Weser beaming as she followed Stirling to start exploring the castle. It was a lot to take in but she was doing her best to take mental notes so she could ask later. When the opportunity presented itself, she chimed in.
"Hang on. You used to live here?" Came out first, and then, "It's good to know it isn't falling apart and stuff. That it was safe while you were living here, but…well. That just bring me back to that first question. You don't have to answer, though! I just."
Weser blinked, not wanting her words to get too far ahead of her. "Okay, going back to Lysithea things. So Unicorns, and looking so cute. I love it so far. And you said I could even have one of these? Like. A castle of my own?" Her eyes about doubled in size when she said it out loud, and already she was looking forward to visiting her Wonder.

“Look, going to Crystal is…absolutely wild for me okay? I’m. And now that we have all of this, you can’t just…drop me because you know how poor I really am, but. Yeah. There. Was an incident where…uh.”
Stirling hesitated and looked away, shrugging. “So we have these things called starseeds right? And they’re like a person’s soul and mine was kind of. Stolen for a while? And the foster family I was staying with was like. God they were s**t but. They decided I wasn’t worth it so I got sent off to Washington D.C. and put into a group home, and I absolutely ran away from that s**t at the first possible moment but. Then I had no where to live so.”
She gestured around. “Home sweet home. And yeah. Unicorns…and looking cute and…yeah. You might have a castle. I hope you do. We can totally have parties…”

"As if that's any reason to cut ties with someone," Weser said once Stirling had finished explaining. She wound up tugging the girl closer and effectively clinging to her all the more as they went. "That's ridiculous, and if you've ever met anyone that did that to you, then they aren't worth it and you're absolutely better off without them."
The young Page huffed, confident as could be with her words despite what little life and world experience she had.
"But okay, so home sweet home. I'm glad you had somewhere to go, and that it was safe and stuff. But now you've also got me," and hopefully the girls, by extension, but she wasn't going to volunteer them, of course. "And my hopefully-castle. I hope it's like yours!"
Oh, the way she would decorate if she had a space like this! "So. How do I get there? To mine, I mean."
