" milady! m...milady corrin!! " the maid yells out; out of breath & ragged. she formally bows as usual before breaking the laws of retainer formalities. felicia takes hold of corrin's hands, gently clutching them between her own. " oh.. my kind lady, i heard you went on a voyage of sorts and by the time i arrived you were gone ! i think i almost going crazy looking for you...! " she pouts but smiles after lifting her gaze to see corrin's natural smile once more. her lady was sweet like white chocolate, strong enough to venture on her own and bright enough to melt her own worries away. her lady was made of daylight, smiles bright enough to outshine the sun, and one would think that you might go blind but you still can’t look away. felicia knew it’s cliché, but it doesn’t matter. her master was simply divine, none could out match her in her eyes. " but, alas, thank the heavens for bringing you back safely to us, i couldn't ask for nothing more than that. i hope your trip was fun !! how was it, i'd love hear your stories ! "
Home has followed her here, one piece at a time. It was only a matter of when her dearest friend would find her fumbling way to the monastery -- Jakob's arrival promised as much.
Corrin tells herself that she is grateful it had taken a little longer for them to reunite, that she doesn't know what she would have done if she had lost another familiar face to that dream.
Fingers clasp her maid's, ever unbothered by those silly etiquette rules she so frequently heard Jakob prattle off. Felicia was her friend, more than anything, and friends were permitted joyful reunions like these.
"I'm so glad you're here," her smile feels impossible to shake, the wraiths of Verdane falling away from her shoulders in the other girl's shining warmth. Even as Felicia questions, Corrin does nothing more than shake her head with a dismissive laugh.
"It was fine, but that hardly matters. It's been so long-- I'm sure we have plenty to tell each other both! There will be plenty of time to catch up. Oh! Have you seen the courtyards? There are so many more flowers here than back home-"
