Nova's return didn't seem quite as amazing to her; having been asleep the whole time, she only knew that several months had passed because she'd been told they had. That didn't diminish her joy, however. She could only be pleased to be together with her friends - her adopted family - again. The extra attention never hurt, either.

"It's been great! I mean, there's always gonna be the weirdness of living here, but I'm really glad that I came back. I know I have a family back where I came from, but I have one here, too." She kicked a pebble and watched it bounce down the steps for a second before grinning brightly at Kagerou. "I am back in the Adventurers. Krile kept my sword and everything, so I didn't have to scavenge another one." The sword in question was slung across her back, oddly incongruous with the casual clothes she was sporting, but classic Nova nonetheless.

Her thoughts of familial feelings brought her latest dream back to her mind. Not the scary part, but the warm, happy part where her three big brothers came and encouraged her and cuddled her. She hadn't spoken of it with many people since she'd returned. She wished she could see them again, but in a way she was glad they weren't in Edensphere.

"I had another dream before I hatched again. I saw my big brothers. There were three of them!" A touch of wistfulness softened her smile. "They were so funny. Well, two of them were. The oldest one seemed more quiet and thoughtful." Nova took point once they reached the bridge to Melee Island, testing any planks that looked suspect. They'd all been sound on her way in, but it never hurt to be sure.

Kagerou let Nova go first, a little amused by the protective gesture but not minding it at all. The bridge was mostly in good repair, as people visited the Dojo every day.

"Three? That's a lot! You're very lucky, you know." She smiled, wide but a touch wistful. "Though I think you do know. You sound like it. I... saw my brother a little while ago, too. My real brother, I mean, though I have a few here in the Sphere, too! The fourth floor showed me my home, and..."

This had been one of the things Nova had missed, and Kagerou hesitated for a moment over the best way to put it. "And my brother's memorial," she finished. "He's dead, but at least I know what he looked like. What his name is. It makes it easier, somehow."
