This was really Annie and Summer's party, that just so happened to take place in Rey's stupidly giant apartment. Still, even while she'd been told a lot of people might be coming, Rey was a little concerned no one actually would, and then she'd have to figure out what to do with just... a ridiculous amount of alcohol and so many inflatable reindeer. And packages for this thing had been showing up daily for a week, including as late as this afternoon, and after all of this, people had better show up.

There were so many Christmas lights around the place that the apartment lights weren't even on, Summer's Jello shots were very much on display, and while there was mistletoe hanging from the ceiling, it wouldn't force you to kiss anyone. (No, no, that's the alcohol's job.) It was jolly as hell up in here, and honestly loud enough that even if you decided to skip the party you'd probably have some idea of how it went.

Also Tino showed up like ten minutes early and was just kind of hanging around.

Enjoy the night! Hopefully you wore something festive or you're gonna hear about it.

Amaya definitely had to do a little bit of a double take. She hadn't been keeping up with radio very well lately. Something something big project.

Then she had to blink a few times to make sure she wasn't seeing things. Because here was the thing when you sort of grew up believing that everyone eventually left and, when they did, they stayed gone...

"Zards," she finally managed, "Seivarden? When in the world did you get back?"

"A couple of days ago," Seivarden said. "I understand it's only been a few months here."

She smiled.

Amaya took a moment to think about it. "Yeah," she agreed, "just about..."

And then she sort of thought about how exactly Seivarden had put that, and her brow furrowed a little.

"How long was it there?" she asked.

"About two years," Seivarden said. "It's been eventful. I'm back for a while, but at least I can reach my universe when I want to now."

She added: "How are you?"

"Well," Amaya offered, with a little nod, and an uncertain look on her face that didn't seem to match her words, "it's good to see you."

It was weird to see her, if she was honest. When you really did expect to never see someone again, it took a bit of adjustment when they just showed up again at a party.

"And I'm good!" she said. "Been a bit busy, nose to the grindstone on a couple of projects, you know how it is. But that's great news about your universe; after how long you were stuck here, that's got to be quite the release!"

Seivarden wasn't sure how to interpret that look, but moving on to more practical things might be better.

"Oh, it is. And I brought some things that you might be interested to have a look at. So, what projects?"

"Oh, you know," Amaya waved her hand, much in the spirit of the fact that the projects themselves were mostly just handwavey excuses for her particular inactivity lately, "this and that. Come by the shop sometime, and I'll show you..."

But she had to admit, the rest of what she'd said had her...intrigued.

"...what kinds of things?"

"Oh, I brought a few guns, and armour, and I could probably get other things now that the portal works. What would you find interesting? We did watch quite a few entertainments, did we?"

It was comforting that this still worked.

Amaya was a simple woman, Seivarden. Always had been, always would be.

"Just about how big are those ship engines, anyway?" she asked, after a moment to run her brain over the possibilities a little.

Seivarden grinned. "A bit too big to take through a portal, I'm afraid. Besides, the ship wouldn't approve."

At least she had learnt that since she left.
