This pairing is strange, even for me. And it's my first time writing femslash, so… yeah. And I really hope I don't make the Moon a Mary-Sue, cuz that would just be sad. The Moon's too cool to be a Mary-Sue… though I guess that's a kinda contradicting statement.
Although I usually portray Jemi as Demeter and Munkustrap's daughter, in this she's Demi and Mac's. This is set before Demi returns to the Jellicles.

I looked down at my people from my vantage point in the sky, caressing them gently with light. I loved all the Jellicles, but there was one who tugged at my heart even more. A beautiful calico queen with chocolate eyes, who was one of the few that mortals that I could directly speak to. She had a difficult life- her father had been exiled from the Junkyard Tribe, and her mother had followed him into exile. He ran a criminal empire, and wasn't exactly a caring dad…
Jemima, I whispered softly as she looked up at me, the stars reflected in her tear-filled eyes. Jemima, love… what's wrong?
Daddy and Mummy were fighting again, she replied sadly, sitting down on the roof of her father's warehouse. She thinks he's been seeing another queen… and I know he is. I saw him with Auntie Bomba. I wish I could come and live in the sky with you, Luna…
And I wish I could come live on Earth with you, love, I said wistfully. I wish my spirit wasn't trapped to a big rock in space.
At least it glows, Jemima offered with a wry grin, attempting to lighten the mood. I laughed.
Which makes it so much better, right?
Exactly! A glowing rock is way cooler than a non-glowing rock.
Of course. We chatted like this until the sky began to lighten, and the sun was beginning to creep over the horizon.
I have to go now, love, I said sadly, caressing her one more time with the moonlight. I love you, Jemima.
I love you too, Luna. I'll talk to you tomorrow night?
Of course… I didn't have the chance to say anymore before the night had ended.

Rather short, I know, but it was sort of the prologue. Did you like it? Did you find the concept incredibly weird, yet somehow understandable?
I did, too.
This one probably won't be updated as frequently as my other ones- it's more of a side project. Then again, I have Writer's Block with practically all my stories except the Roaring Twenties… so who knows?
I think it'll get better as it goes on… I think that this chapter was kind of rushed, but I can't think of how to fix it…
