Aside from a slightly sore shoulder and a couple of scrapes from the fall, she was fine. Better than fine. He was here, her brother was here. For some two months now she'd been alone; everyone on the islands had been wonderful, and kind. But none of them had been with her in the Tower. None of them had endured all that.
None of them were her family.
She didn't even hesitate to hug him back, tightly. He wasn't the only one crying, not by a long shot.
She didn't know for sure if he'd make it from here to the islands proper. Didn't know if coming here was a guarantee. But at least she had this now, this moment.
Results were inconclusive when I looked at Mu's info so I just went with "Ehhh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯")
