Ali had spent the better part of an afternoon studying the message, debating what she wanted to do versus what she needed to do. In the end, it was no contest: she did what Samus needed her to do. So when she arrived, it was in style: beautiful clothes, beautiful smiles, and a bottle of something fancy to throw at the ship.

"I hope I'm not late."

*Samus looks up from where she'd been sitting in the shielded container, wearing one of the himations Ali gave her, her hair up in clips, and an expression like she's been wringing her organs between her hands. When Ali arrives, relief fills her every line as Samus straightens up, offering a tentative smile of her own.*

Never. And you look amazing. Thank you for coming.

"As if I'd miss it," she murmurs, folding Samus into a hug. "You look very pretty."

*A hug! Oh, a hug. Hugs are good, and Samus is glad to return it.*

Thanks. Someone gave me some very good fashion advice.
