[It had taken some work, but Anew had managed to convince the others at the base to let her go with the next supply shuttle so she could visit Lyle on Earth for Christmas. She had a few days before they would return so she didn't have much time, but she could have at least a day or so to see what Christmas was about. Granted she had had to borrow

[ Lyle had to admit, he was looking forward to this. Anew seemed like a nice girl. Someone worth knowing. And not having celebrated Christmas before? That was tragic and needed to be sorted out as soon as possible. Lyle was fairly certain that if nothing else, he knew how to show someone a good time in Belfast at Christmastime.

He caught sight of Anew - that hair was pretty distinctive, after all - and stepped forward, lifting his hand in a half-wave to greet her. Probably best to call out to her too, actually - this station was heaving with people on a normal day, let alone around Christmas. ]

Oi, Anew, over here!

[She looked up hearing her name and smiled seeing him. She waved back to let him know that she had seen him. Then she started through the crowd to get over to him with her bag. It was a bit of a fight to get passed everyone and she almost got pushed over once, but finally she reached him. At least he was tall and easy to spot]

Hello, Lyle. It's good to finally meet you.

Good to finally meet you in person too.

[ He kept his smile easy as he looked down at her, not quite able to ignore how obviously good-looking Anew was. This sort of thing was hard to tell over the internet sometimes, but up-close and in person, it was obvious.

Don't do anything stupid, Lyle, he reminded himself. ] You want to get out of this station? It's pretty busy at the best of times, but around Christmas it gets ridiculous.
