Delphine
Delphine's gaze was fixed on the ground as she began to walk, jerking one fighting child behind of her, the other following obediantly. She didn't get far before a voice, the same one that had said she did not belong here, or rather, should not be here, called out to her.
This time... her name.
She stopped in place, tilting her head, quickly sorting through faces she thought she might remember. Voices...
The fact that he had said her name sent a cold chill through her body. After all, she had a habit of breaking people, and disappearing. Not that she'd really accept it was a habit, though. She was good at denying things. After a moment of staring down at the girls, she released them both with a quiet order of: "Stay together, okay?"
Always naive. They'd be safe together, in the open, wouldn't they? Without stopping to really think beyond her reassurance to herself that they'd be fine, she turned to fully face the man.
Her voice quivered, as she spoke his name, well she hoped she had chosen the right person to assume, "R... Remi?" She didn't move from her spot, even as she felt the children move away from her legs, off into a nearby gaggle of people. She sent an order to Poe, to keep an eye on the children; it'd be hard to miss a bright pink bird circling the two of them.
"I..." She felt compelled to explain herself--though for what, she wasn't quite sure.

Let me make you smile, darling.
