When the automatic door flew open Reena flinched and faced the newcomer, hunched over and with her hands outstretched like she a wrestler getting ready to face his next challenger. The tipsy Sorlas was pleased to see that it was Rae who came out of the other room to ascertain just what was going on out here. Reena, of course, was incredibly happy to see her!

[color=9e0b0f]"Raaaaaae!"[/color] Reena exclaimed with her arms outstretched. [color=9e0b0f]"Vanquisher of moles, healer of plants, and second in command of the biggest bunch of idiots in the whole Quadrant, the MAUVE RAIDERS!"[/color]

Without warning, Reena darted forward and wrapped her arms around the co-captain in a tight hug. [color=9e0b0f]"Thank [i]Malunista[/i] we have you around, doc," [/color]Reena continued before pulling apart, only to notice with alarm that Rae had been crying. It would have been awkward in any other time and place, but like before the fun and happily buzzed Sorlas ignored most of the nuances of social interaction.

[color=9e0b0f]"Is...is something wrong?"[/color] Reena asked as sincerely as she could muster.
