Ophelia giggles, the noise a bit awkward as Illie squeezes tighter, holds her closer. But it doesn't feel unnatural, just.. different. It feels hungry, like the hug means more to Illeana than Filly. Not that it doesn't mean something to the girl, because it does. But it isn't the fleeting, doting hug from her mother. This is.. different.
It's why she, too, holds on tighter. Why she doesn't let go even when the hug feels like it might be going on for too long. It's why she smiles, beams, glows beneath Illie's warm light.
"I missed you too, auntie."
Auntie, even if that is not really what she is. She's a cousin, but auntie feels.. right. In some ways, they could almost be sisters.
Ophelia giggles, bashful, blushing, as her hands fit into Illie's and the woman pulls at her from arms length to watch her, gaze upon her, compliment her. She melts like putty, unsure what to say or think. Her blush deepens and she glances at her feet.
"Thank you, Illie.."
But her eyes widen and she watches in awe and surprise as her cousin pulls her toward the kitchen, through the open door. There, on the table, waiting for them to witness, is a beautiful pokeball with a satin bow. Her heart beats louder in her chest, faster and then slower.
"A surprise for me? But surely I'm putting you out by staying here, Illie. I-I-I.. I should have brought you something!"
