Penelo laughed, a melodious sound, as the fat little cockatrice cheeped at her then went waddling on her way to Edge and Edward. That laugh cut off, however, as her heart leaped up into her throat when Reks said her name. He truly was alive! Something she'd wished for, both for herself and Vaan, the adoptive big brother back among the living. Forgetting or ignoring that anyone else stood about, she flung her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly. "Reks! It really is you!"
She little cared how it was possible, joy taking hold and overriding the practical side which should be questioning the reality of the situation. Not worth consideration was the unusual circumstances which made her a good two years older than him as well. "You look just like I remember you." He'd been strong and kind and full of life. "How are you? Are you okay?" Her blue eyes lit with delight, shining brightly with tears that brimmed up on her unbidden.
Indulging in another hug first, Penelo eventually turned, relinquishing her hold on Reks. "Thank you so much for bringing him here, Mjrn." Her address to the young Viera then shifted to her erstwhile guardians. "Thank you for waiting too. I can't tell you what this means to me."
