*April 2nd*

[May bursts into Spring's room, as Spring looks up in surprise.]

May: Spring, Spring, Spring! I made a new friend!

Spring: Oh, that's swell!

May: Her name is Tukiyo, she was in the magic show September went to.

[Tukiyo walks in, looking around with awe. She notices Spring, and makes an O with her one hand and circles.]

Tukiyo: Hello.

[May giggles as she does the same motion as Tukiyo.]

Spring: Tukiyo, what an exquisite name, but... you know humans aren't allowed here.

May: She told me she's not a human, she's something else.

Spring: Truly? May I ask, what are you?

Tukiyo: I'm a Luni; I was born on Lunar.

May: The moon!... right?

Tukiyo: Yeah. We live deep in its core, so... I've never really seen what it looks like on the surface except on images.

Spring: Oh... well, have you observed its beautiness from Earth?

Tukiyo: You can see Luna from here?

Spring: Of course, just look at the sky at night.

Tukiyo: Wow... they said the clouds were too thick for the humans to see Luna.

May: Well, now we can teach you about right things! Winter knows some stuff, but you gotta be careful, she can get scary.

Spring: Dear May, do not talk about seasons like that. Winter is just as graceful as she can be.

May: It's true! C'mon, Tukiyo, let's head out to the night right now!

[May takes Tukiyo's hand and the two head out the door.]

Spring: Be careful, alright?

May: Okay!

[May skips along the grass in the darkness of the night, while Tukiyo walks behind.]

Tukiyo: So, what does the civilization here do for fun?

May: They usually just stay in all day, playing on a box with a screen, doing absolutely nothing. Some people do go outside and walk, though!

Tukiyo: Oh! Well, us Lunis usually duel each other to death.

May: What? That sounds horrible!

Tukiyo: It's to keep the population low. We don't have room inside Luna after all.

[May suddenly stops, looking in one direction. Tukiyo confusedly stares at her.]

Tukiyo: M-May? Lunar to May?

May: Wh-who's that with March?

[She points her finger to the two figures in the distance.]

May: Let's go find out what he's up to this time.

[The two walk up to the figures, as May suddenly bursts out loud.]

May: March!

[March and April jump, as he instinctively shoots water at May, who squints her face, which is covered with water.]

March: What do you want, May?!

May: What are you doing here? And who's this girlfriend you have with you?

March: Girlfriend?

[March facepalms.]

March: This is April!
