Hearing him say those words makes a warm, pleasant feeling bloom in her chest. These are words that most anyone would take for granted, a harmless greeting said to someone who's returned. But to Oriphi, who wasn't sure she would be returning, or much less have somewhere to return to... the words carry with them such a great weight. It means that she survived. And it means that, unlike the lonely childhood that she and Valphi had... she wasn't alone anymore.
Her arms rise to return Diluc's embrace, her fingers pressed firmly against his back as she buries her face in his chest, drawing in a deep breath. She had almost forgotten what it was like to be in his arms like this. She never wants to almost-forget again. ]
I missed you so much, moonlight...
[ It's probably a good thing that she and her friends have all gone off to do other things, because Ori and Diluc would never hear the end of it if they'd heard them call each other such sweet names.
After a quiet moment of simply enjoying his warmth around her, she angles her head so she can look up at him, at those scarlet eyes she loves so much. ]
