Hotaru
angels would damn themselves for me
Hotaru arrives last, and it's not without reason. She hasn't seen her niece since she and Noah stood as Halo's brief, temporary Wardens, and the girl had denounced her and left Halo forever. While she'd made amends with Deimos, she and Hotaru had simply...never spoken again. As excited as the Valkyrie is for Deimos and Evie, the prospect of a family dinner has left her with knotted insides for days.
She comes on the heels of Kiada's flurry of an entrance, and Evie opens the door for her with a warm smile that Hotaru can read the nerves in. Ru tries to offer a comforting one of her own, but she wouldn't be surprised if the Evergreen can see the same in hers. Stepping inside, she takes off her coat and hangs it, busying herself so she doesn't immediately resort to staring at Kiada as the young woman attempts to warm herself by the fire. Her fingers twitch with the desire to use her magic to hasten her comfort, but she resists.
"Your remodels look amazing," she compliments the engaged pair readily, having witnessed each one from down the street and seen a few up close already. Ignoring Kiada doesn't spell positive endings either however, so she turns and offers a tentative smile as she extends her hand. Deimos can surely do the same, but Ru is desperate to figure out where they stand. "May I? I can use my magic to warm you up faster." And, regardless of what the Harpy allows, Ru turns her attention to Deimos to affect an upbeat air. "What's on the menu for tonight?"
