Hey, starchild, are you listening?
At least some of her fears were squashed when a reply came from somewhere within. When Remi showed up, Seren greeted him with a wide smile and open arms, offering - or perhaps pleading for - warm hugs. Paint be damned; blue was her color anyway.
"Hello, you! This is a surprise invasion!" She made a grand gesture towards the parcels. "I brought cake! And gifts for Mateo. And I have a companion now." Another flourish of her hands introduced the dragon. Or rather, the spot where the dragon had been last; Umbra was already on the other end of the store, halfway up a shelf where something smelled very interesting. Hurriedly, Seren fluttered after to retrieve him before anything broke.
"Please tell me the others are home, too? And that this is not a terrible time?" The question was asked over a shoulder, as she tried to pry sharp talons from wood. She was not exactly pleading. There was too much self-awareness in her laughter for that; but you could always hope that your plans worked out, right? Right.
