"Hmmm... Hi?" Tanner called out as he stepped inside the Valentine residence. "A-anyone?"
The moment Grace heard Tanner’s voice, she lit up. “In the kitchen, love!”
Grace pulled Tanner into her the moment she saw him. “Oh my darling, I have missed you.” She pressed a kiss to his forehead. “I am well, my dear. And how are you?”
"Hmm... I got. I got in trouble," he said resting his head against the goddess's shoulder. He had missed her, too. No one was as warm and loving as Grace; it was an oddly soothing feeling. "So. I had to dis-disappear. For a while."
