"I'm sorry?" said Luna, tapping her overlarge ear trumpet (painted sky blue).

"I said," he grumbled, "I don't look like a wizard without a proper beard."

"You look perfectly well like a wizard without that silly glamour on."

"I don't have hair anymore! I'm eighty-two years old, I deserve a proper beard."

Luna put a hand on her hip, slowly walking forward. "But you're so much more kissable without that in the way."

"Harrumph," said Rolf, but he met her halfway across the room.
