"That can only mean that our next stop will be the heirloom for the Sailor Moon!"exclaimed Minako.
"That's true!"Rei agreed.
"Everyone else has gotten some kind of jewelry."observed Ami. "So, I suppose that must be the case with Usagi as well. Maybe a brooch?"
"Or an entire set?!"suggested Usagi.
"What?!"
"Well, she is the Moon Princess. It probably wouldn't be odd for her to get an entire set, would it?"Ami asked Luna and Artemis.
"Probably not."agreed Artemis.
"I could probably have bought a much nicer bracelet."Kunzite said.
"What would you want with a bracelet?"asked Nephrite. "Don't tell me you want it to wear it."
Kunzite glared at him.
"Of course I wouldn't wear jewelry."he said, coldly. "I would have bought it to give to someone as a gift."
"Who would you give a gift to?"asked Jadeite.
Kunzite didn't answer.
"Whoever it would be, I don't want to think what we could find on our next stop."said Mamoru. "That bracelet was very nice, wasn't it?"he could only imagine what Usagi might get. Maybe if he got her something else? Before someone else did?he thought.
"I think I'm going to get a migraine! All these bright colors are hurting my eyes!"said Rei.
"The colors really are hard on the eyes of some non-Irians."Iris told them.
"You guys really do have a thing for color here, don't you? I love the flowers! They're so-"Makoto gasped, noticing one flower slowly changing color. "They change color?!"
"Of course!"said Iris. "Depending on their mood, or the environment."
"They also have such pretty patterns."observed Rei.
"It's like we're in one big rainbow."observed Zoicite. Color and light seemed to radiate even from Princess Iris's dress.
"That, of course, should be much harder on Kunzite than anyone else, isn't it, Kunzite. You're always so…blah. It's actually pretty cheerful here. That must be torture for you."chuckled Nephrite.
Normally Kunzite would have responded, or even challenged him to a duel, however, he knew Mamoru wouldn't approve of it. Not here, anyway. He'd take care of Nephrite when they were back on Earth.
"Yes. We Irians do have quite a thing for color. For light, in general."
"You could blind your enemy."commented Ami. "If you can manipulate the light. How interesting. Hmm, that would be useful."
"Actually, I think that's just one of the things the senshi of Iris specializes in, isn't it?"Artemis asked Iris.
"Well, yes."Iris agreed.
"How do you sleep at night?"asked Jadeite.
Iris sighed.
"Unfortunately, the star can only be viewed from one side of the planet, of course. It must be dark on the other side. However, that's not a problem."she gestured at her skirt. "See? We Irians have come to make our clothes so they can give off light, even in the dark."
"I guess you'd need light if you like color."
"And who painted all of these?"asked Mamoru observing all the paintings and decorations hanging on the walls.
"Some were done by me, and others have been for generations."
"Ooohh, look!"Usagi gestured toward Mamoru, standing before the painting.
"You seem to be glowing!"
"That's nothing to worry about."Iris assured them. "The light here will do that. However, once you get to your own planet, with the light from your own star, it will fade. Unfortunately"she sighed.
"We all are glowing!"
"Oh, wow!"
Everyone seemed to have a different color swirling around them, with a different pattern.
"It's beautiful!"said Rei.
"I'd even like to stay here forever."said Makoto. "It's...it's…magical!"she said.
"You can tell a lot from a person just by looking at the color they radiate."she said to them. "It can also vary with your mood."
She looked around them.
"See…"she gestured at Makoto. "Green. You like to garden, don't you? You like to see things grow. See them come alive.""she went to Minako. "Yellow. You're quite a cheerful person, aren't you?"
"Yeah."they agreed.
"And,"she walked up to Usagi. "A…glowing, dazzling shade of silver."
Everyone could see that the color that formed about Usagi was different from everyone else's, even Isis herself. There seemed to be stars around her.
"You know,"began Iris. "here on Iris, you will also find the most, er, extraordinary fashions. Especially where the colors of the material is concerned. However, I think something may help enhance the color."
Iris took out a silver tiara, and placed it on Usagi's head.
"I always did wonder why we would have kept a tiara with the symbol of the Moon on it."she said.
