This is great! :] I love fics that explore the difficulties Gaila has in adjusting to the humans around her and this is definitely the first time I've seen smiling used. I love that Uhura is the one to clear it up for her.

Gaila has such a stunning, heartfelt smile; I got caught up in the idea that it really means something to her.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed!
