The morning of their return to Brightmoon would be the beginning of their new life. A life without war, without out the dreaded cloak of evil darkening threatening to destroy the planet or worst. The universe with many life sustaining planets.  That day would also been the start of some major life adjustments for those who were taking baby steps towards the path of Good.

The warm welcome home was the kick off to what would become a massive week long party that would go down in Brightmoon history.

(Two hours after arriving)
For those first two hours Bow and Glimmer  spent time showing off the two balloons that Bow and Entrapta had built and engineered to carry them home. "Who would've thought primitive tech and the touch of a skilled modern times tinkerer would make such a magnificent craft. Well done Tech Master Bow" said an invested man from the crowd who himself looked like a mad scientist who's experiment had blown up in his face just minutes before. "You're an inspiration really" the man praised and Bow was loving the attention. Glimmer on the other hand was more than happy to see Bow basking in the glory. "This rescue mission was an adventure to be told. So starting tonight please join us here at Brightmoon Castle for a homecoming celebration!! We'll tell you all about our adventures! The near death trials, Bows brilliant Mind."

"WE'RE GONNA HAVE A FREAKIN RAGER!!!" Frosta shouted from atop Scoripas shoulders.

The crowd cheered and began to disburse to prepare for the event. The other princesses with Bow and Glimmer began parting away from the group to begin party planning leaving Catra and Adora in the field by the balloon ships which were being transported to what would become Bows museum of oddities and inventions.

That whole time Catra was kept close by Adora who could feel the feline tense up in the welcoming crowd. They were surrounded almost immediately after landing so escape wasn't an option for Catra who had at one point tried to sneak away but the rope around her hips, which she had forgotten about, was effective in making Catra tumble into Adoras arms. Again.

"... I thought I was gonna die back there, it's like they didn't even see me. Which I guess is a good thing." Catra said as she lightly pushed Adora away to arms length. But Adora didn't step away. In fact the blonde moved in again, her hands going to the rope that still attached Catra to the balloons and began untying it freeing Catras hips. "Don't worry. I wouldn't have let they hurt you" came Adoras voice. Catras hands had subconsciously gone to Adoras shoulder while she was being untied. It was only when Adora looked her in the eyes that Catra realized how close they had gotten again.

"Adora..." "Hey you two let's go! I'm dyin for a bath and Spinnerella said she's gonna make us pre party snacks!!" Catra began but glimmer in the distance called for their attention much to catras relief and annoyance. "Be right there!" Adora waived with that big dorky smile. "Shall we?" Adora said as she offered Catra her hand. Catra took it and nodded. "Yeah. You smell like shadoweavers robes on laundry day" Catra laughed then began to run with Adora laughing right behind her. "Well you smell like swift wind after a fly over the boggy swamp!" Came the blondes retort.

Swift wind who had been in the crowd gave a fake hurt look before sniffing his wing then huffed flying after the group who had all began running. "Words hurt!! Even if their true!"

(The Royal bath house)
When they had arrived to the bath house they found that the servants had already prepared an array of snacks and had added extra scented bubble water to the baths to hopefully take care of that awful odor. Glimmer and Bow were the first to bathe. taking their time to soak and wash each other while also feeding on the snacks they had floating on a tray in the water. But needless to say after filling their stomachs and soaking in the warm suds a much anticipated nap was in order.
