"Wow, you sure grow up fast, huh?"

"Yup," she chirped. 

There was so much he wanted to say, so many things that he wanted to ask about. But perhaps it wasn't yet the best time. "What was that about your stalker?"

Moonlight caught a set of grinning teeth and long with it the rest of the figure that stalked out from the shadows, "That's a bit rude, don't you think?"
