Tidus, for his part, was inside doing...nothing. Next to nothing, anyway. The window was partially open, and he was too busy...well, okay, he wasn't too busy with anything, but he liked leaving it open more, anyway. So he didn't bother closing it

Rikku was already downstairs, waiting for somebody else entirely. There wasn't a lot to do in the apartment, anyway, and she was starting to get antsy. At some point, she did want to go and check out Cid's attempt at an airship, but it wasn't a super high priority. Teaching a candlestick how to use machina wasn't something she'd ever had on her list before, but it would give her something to do in the meantime.

She was about done outlining the lesson in her head when she heard a whistle. Curious, she turned her head to the door. What was that? It sounded... Pocketing her journal, she jogged to the front door. And there, on the other side of the plate glass, was Yuna.

With a delighted gasp, she burst through the door. "Yunie! You're back!" she exclaimed, running full-tilt toward her cousin. That girl was getting bear-hugged whether she liked it or not!

Yuna hadn't really expected an answer - after all, he was probably somewhere else by now - so she'd just started to head in when she heard his call. Raising a hand to her forehead to shade her eyes, she spotted him in the window and grinned. He really was here! It hadn't just been a dream, a memory she'd had out there. It was real!

So she nodded. "Okay!" she called, hoping he could make it down without needing her to come find him. Sometimes, these apartments could be a little hard to navigate, like Macalania used to be.

Yuna had just settled in to wait, still standing by the front entrance, when she heard a second call accompanied by a thump somewhere in her chest area. Yuna gave a grunt at the impact and then wrapped her arms around her cousin, holding Rikku close. It had been so long since she'd seen Rikku, so long. And even though clearly this Rikku wouldn't remember half of what had happened to them, she was still Rikku and that was the important thing

Thankfully, this wasn't the first time Tidus had made a trip through the apartment building. Directions were easy for him to remember - growing up having to learn his way around Zanarkand had taught him that skill, and he'd gotten plenty of extra practice in Spira. So getting to the front door, even in a rush, wasn't that hard.

He just wished that it was closer.

When he did finally get there, he rushed out with enough enthusiasm to rival Rikku's...who, he could see, had already beat him outside.

"Yuna!" he yelled, not stopping as he rushed over to both of them. He stopped when he got close...and stood there, looking first and Rikku, then at Yuna. He just smiled - really, what else could he do? Tidus was happy - happy that they were all there, and safe.

In the end, everything had turned out okay. He didn't care about being stuck in Paixao - whatever was going on, they could handle it.

"Finally! I was getting worried." he said. In be completely honest, he had been worried already. He had just been getting more worried.

"Yeah, no kidding," Rikku agreed with him, finally releasing her cousin. It had been a long few days just sitting around and worrying, both of them activities that weren't her style to begin with.

"You are doing okay, right?" she added, giving Yuna a quick visual once-over just in case. She looked fine... Way different, honestly, but she'd let that go until all the hellos and hugs and hearts were out of the way.
