"I want to see the zebras," Blaise announced pulling Luna's hand. Her other hand was holding Harry's. The three had come to the zoo to spend the afternoon. They'd barely made it in the entrance when Blaise and Harry had started their little tug of war. Luna shouldn't have been surprised. Both her boys got excited easily and tended to overlook her and her usual quietness.

"But the reptile house is this way," Harry stated pointing to a large brick red building. There were snake statues decorating the lightposts outside of it. Luna felt him pull her that direction. So far neither of her boys had asked her what she wanted to see. They hadn't even gotten a map yet, not that they really needed it, she had most of the zoo memorized since she came here so much. She felt both of them tugging slightly. Doing the first thing that popped into her head, she sat down on the concrete path. The concrete was warm beneath her. Harry and Blaise froze once they realized she was no longer holding their hands. They turned and looked down at her.

"Luna, what's wrong?"

"You two are being total brats today! I thought we were here to have fun and all you've done is argue about what you want to see! You haven't even asked me what I want to see yet." Harry and Blaise looked at each other. Slowly they pulled Luna to her feet.

"Sorry, Luna. I just got really excited, the snakes always have really cool stories."

"I'm sorry too, my Little Moon. My uncle kept telling me about seeing the zebras on safari and I didn't think." Luna smiled at them.

"So, what do you want to do, Luna?" Harry asked after a moment.

"I want to get an ice cream, and then see the zebras and snakes and see if there's any new sapphire shiners hiding in the water of the lemur exhibit," she answered with a smile.

"Ice cream is always good," Harry agreed as they let Luna lead the way to the ice cream stand holding hand the entire time way.
