It seemed they were both at a loss, and she found comfort in knowing that. Words seemed to come so easy to Desna, and by her approach to these long-lost reunions, Nanook would have guessed these strange situations were a thing she handled on a frequent basis. But Xan reacted in a way she understood, and at Desna's tease, Nanook tipped her head with the twitch of a smile.

Any of those greetings would have felt right coming out of Desna's mouth, but she and her brother had always shared a different sort of friendship, one she wasn't sure how she could describe, but here, she saw, they had the chance to figure that out. To try again. She wouldn't tell Desna, but he was always her favourite, and at the same time, the absolute worst. And though that was all in the past, her happiness rose through the tangle of that, and she allowed her face the freedom to smile, and her tail the freedom to sway.
