Imagine the most unusual pair of roommates. Multiply it by a thousand. (Private: Rackie & Arc || Mature)

Charlotte hummed while holding her chin, trying her best to think back. "We weren't together for too long, and besides the stuff you'd expect from a child separated from their parents, I can't really remember much. It has been an awfully long time. Sorry."

"So, pizza it is, then?" Ana said.

Luna smiled in a bittersweet way. "I-I see. Th-thank you anyway" Luna said, then nodded. Well, if Charlotte didn't remember anything then it meant that nothing too bad happened because of her alone. Refocusing on the reality she looked around. "What... what kind of pizza?" Luna asked.
"I can order from any pizza place in Death City. This means you can basically pick whatever you wish." Minerva informed them.
"Hm... I'd go for a classic combo of ham, cheese and mushrooms." Aurora said.
"Yes, me too, I think." Mark added.

"I'd like something spicy, but anything is fine," Ana said.

"Still indifferent," Charlotte once more reiterated. She'd eat anything.

"Spicy and normal. Got it." Minerva confirmed. A moment later she smiled. "Done!" The golem announced.
"T-That was... fast." Luna said and then shook her head. Of course, it was fast, Minerva was a computer after all.
"I'm sorry if I sound out of the loop here, but I'm curious - how did you meet Luna and Ana?" Mark asked Charlotte.

"Oh, well, there's a story. See, I had this amulet thing that was actually Luna's seal for a very long time and when the two of them went to the witch realm it relocated them basically right on top of me, I think. I had the seal because my mother was the one who put it on her, before the DWMA found her and myself. She had just finished dropping Luna off at the orphanage right under her 'enemies' noses. I'd been told not to tell and I was nothing if not obedient at that point. I was raised by a meister. Then I didn't think to look later on, since I figured I had no leads besides a name," Charlotte gave a summary version of the whole story, trying to keep things brief.

Luna blushed, remembering their meeting in the witches' realm. "Y-Yeah. I didn't really give g-good first impressions during our r-reunion." She said sheepishly.
Mark gave her a surprised look.
"The sway. Remember what it does to her?" Aurora said, as a quick explanation.
"Ah, right." Mark said, placing a hand on his chin. "You've got quite a history together then."
"A-Actually... I'd like to get to know Charlotte more..." Luna admitted.

"She was full aggro, but I'm a master negotiator, so all was well," Charlotte said, puffing out her chest.

"I seem to remember calming her down myself, too, but alright," Ana then retorted.

Charlotte went from puffed up to shrinking away somewhat. "Gah... Foiled..." She turned her attention to Luna, then. "That's why I'm here, y'know."

Luna's cheeks turned redder remembering how bad it was for a moment.
Aurora giggled. "Everyone knows that no matter what Luna will always listen to Ana." She said, making Luna bright red.
Even though the wolf witch wanted to somehow deny that, she knew Aurora was right.

"From what I've seen so far, I can only say that you two are adorable when you're together," Charlotte added, in turn making Ana react similarly.

Luna couldn't get any redder, so she covered her face with her hands and let out some sort of a muffled embarrassed squeal.
"They are. I mean, everyone loves these two." Aurora said bluntly while smirking

"I can see why," Charlotte said, nodding away and smiling a smile that, all in all, was ever so slightly devious.

Ana, similarly, just wanted to hide. She drew her knees up to herself and stuffed her face into them, groaning.

Mark cleared his throat. "I know for a fact that Aurora just can't stop fangirling when it comes to them. She even wanted to make herself a T-Shirt depicting their transformations, with a big "My precious cuties!" written on it." He said. That in turn, made Aurora blush. She crossed her arms on the chest and pouted. "Can you really blame me? " She asked.
"No, I understand. There's something about their relationship that makes you want to do everything to keep them happy." Mark said.
Minerva tilted her head to the side. "I'll never understand why you humans get so excited about these things." She said.

Ana looked up from behind her knees, looking at Aurora with some measure of a complicated emotion that wasn't either disgust or disappointment, but like a heavily diluted mixture of both. "That's a little weird."

"Pff..." Charlotte looked away as she clasped a hand over her mouth, barely stopping the giggles the story elicited at bay.

"Oh come on! That was supposed to be a joke anyway. I've had this idea after watching a tabletop live stream show. Have you never seen online streams where one participant revealed his joke t-shirt depicting another participant?" Aurora said honestly, showing her genuine surprise that they didn't know where the idea came from.
Mark shrugged. "Anyway, you've found yourself a really nice place, Luna." He said
Luna finally managed to look up from behind her hand cover. "Uhm... Thank you."
The enchanter looked at Ana. "Sometimes weapon-meister pairs decide to live together in the same apartment. Have you considered doing that?" Mark asked

"Maybe at some point? I'm really quite fine living at home right now. Don't really have to do much, an' all, y'know?" Ana said, finally lowering her legs back down to where they belonged. The danger seemed to be over, for now.

Mark nodded in understanding. "I see." The enchanter said briefly. Then he remembered something, as evidenced by him snapping his fingers suddenly. "Oh! I almost forgot. My sister suggested inviting you two over for dinner someday. I'm sure she'd like to meet you after hearing so many stories about you." He said smiling.
"You sure Anna's not just interested in inviting them for training to see some of their skills in action?" Aurora suggested.

"I'm going to have to switch to Diana if we take you up on that, huh?" She asked, more as a comment on Mark's sister's name. "I'm fine with it either way, if Luna is," she said.

Mark shook his head. "Not really. She's probably going to switch to Ania. Although, the pronunciations of Ana and An-na are somewhat different." He said smiling.
"I-I've gotten so used to c-calling you Ana, t-that switching to Diana would sound... just off..." Luna said, although her magic-afflicted self (Luna-Not for short), didn't have such thoughts.

"They're similar enough if you say them fast," Ana said with a shrug, but seemed to happily concede that she wouldn't have to have anyone refer to her by her full name. Not that she minded, it was just her preference not to use it since Ana was simpler.

"Hm... Not to me though." Mark said. In fact, he would always hear a clear difference between the two.
"S-So yeah... If Ana would like to... t-then me too..." Luna finally said in response to Mark's offer.
"Great! We'll make sure to cook the best things then!" Mark said, before looking towards Charlotte. "You're invited too, by the way. A friend of Ana and Luna is my friend as well."

"Oh, am I? If I'm around, I'll be sure to come along too, then," Charlotte agreed to the offer, a little surprised but happy to be included nonetheless.

"That's settled, then, I guess," Ana said.

Luna seemed happy that Mark also invited Charlotte. After all, she really wanted to spend more time with her. Her goal was still the same - getting to know her better.
"Hey girls, how about we take a group photo? You know, to have a memento of this day?" Aurora suggested.

"Fine by me," Ana said, even if she wasn't exactly the first to want to take pictures of things.

Charlotte looked out from the corner of her eye at Mark, with the other closed, smiling mischievously. "Weird looking girl, there," she teased, though she could figure what Aurora actually meant.

"Oh no, he's got no say in this." Aurora said casually, waving her hand. Then she smiled somewhat mischievously. "I mean, he'd just agree anyway. He's too big of a gentleman to refuse."
Mark cleared his throat. "No... Yes... I mean..." He tried to come up with something clever to say, but ultimately failed. "You're right..." He finally said after letting out a sigh.
Luna thought it was a good idea, despite not being too fond of being photographed. "O-Okay..."
"I can be your photographer. In fact, I could record this whole meeting and turn it all into a photo album if you so desired." Minerva said.

"I think one photo is enough," Ana said, preferring not to end up with a whole album for no reason. She could take a picture or two, but having enough for something like that was too much for her.
