Got no plans and I've got no money

In truth, she probably wouldn't have told Zavien about the quest if not for wanting him to be with her during part of it, seeing as it was meant to be a surprise for him. She'd never done anything quite like this before, and she wanted to pull it off without a hitch. Maybe she'd counted her eggs before they hatched by going ahead and working on getting him something before they were even official, but she'd taken their last conversation to heart. He'd wanted her, and she'd wanted him, and everything else was now falling into place.
"It's a surprise," she said. Not a secret, because she wouldn't keep secrets from Zavien, but a surprise: something fun, something special, something that was just theirs. If he pressed, she'd probably cave and tell him, because she wasn't sure she could stand to keep it from him long enough to complete the quest - but gods knew she was going to try.
Most of her quest had been fairly straightforward, but this need for starlight was making it challenging to complete. She speared a piece of steak with her fork. "I didn't even think about the greenhouse," she mused. "But that could definitely work." Regardless of if it was clear or raining, they'd be able to see everything - except for the King's End sunrise, but there was plenty of time for that later. Surely a Halovian sunrise would be just as pleasant.
Not having realized that he'd been speaking of the task as though he'd already been invited - perhaps assuming subconsciously that, now that they were officially a couple, they would do more and more together - she giggled lightly as a soft redness crept into Zavien's cheeks. "Great!" she said eagerly. "Honestly, I was hoping to do it sooner than later. I'm pretty excited about finishing the quest." And she hoped that now he would be excited, too. Still, she didn't want to pull him away from anything important by rushing off in a hurry. "So... whenever works for you."
