The Witch Goes Exploring! (OTA for all options)

[radishearring]

When Luna got word of the upcoming Pacifica stop she was actually excited. Even now she was always up for exploring and whatever misadventures came up along the way. At the same time however she was still a teenager and well attractive men without shirts was icing on the cake.

(Option 1: Moon Frog Hunt)

Luna had her notebook in one hand as she stalked out one of many ponds, she remembered something her father had mentioned about the frogs and knew being around so much water would only up the chances of a sighting (and there was so many other creatures that live around water as well). Her wand however had been charmed into its usual chopstick mostly as a precaution but there was also a flower tucked into the teen's ponytail and radishes in her ears.

"So curious!" she was smiling now as a little frog hopped past her perch.

(Option 2: Beach Front)

At heart however Luna was still a teenage girl so she also had planned on some beach time to not just swim and enjoy the sun but to people watch (attractive men without shirts was just icing on the cake she decided) and learning a few new water sports. She had even gotten her hands on a tasteful two piece swimsuit (with magical help to cover her scars from the manor). But for the first time in weeks her heart was lighter, she could not explain it but Luna decided to just enjoy the break from her private pain.

"But now see if anyone would teach me to surf."

(Option 3: Submersible Research Institute)

The Ravenclaw in her however wanted to learn while having fun. So Luna signed up for a tour of the Submersible Research Institute. Sure she may not understand all of it but she could not pass up the chance to learn while having another adventure.

Sad thing? She's talked plants with Keiko, she's listened to the captain go on about ancient pottery shards like they were made of gold pressed latinum. So this didn't seem out of place at all to her. "You will need to get medical to clear the frogs before you bring them aboard if that is your intent," she said dryly. They might tell her she was on leave, but she was still a Star Fleet officer.

"Noted!" Luna called back. "I plan on doing my note taking here, little guys don't like being moved even with good intentions in mind." sounding like a true observer.

She nodded once. That was... unusually sensible for the type of people Ro usually met. What that said about them or about Luna, or even about Ro, it was hard to tell. "If you handle them, you may also want to be checked for infections you might pick up here," she added, feeling she needed to add something. But this seemed to be more or less well in hand.

"Of course, don't plan on touching any this time around. Simply observing and taking notes." Luna called back. She had a rule from working among creatures in the Wizarding world with her dad: observe first before taking samples.

"Then it seems as though I am not needed here," she said, and honestly, she almost regretted it. She liked feeling useful, and so far this girl hadn't managed to tick her off. A rare accomplishment, really. Of course, she had neither treated Ro like a child, not like a maniac, and that too was rare.
