Having moved on, all the the new arrivals were escorted to HQ and were waiting in the office before going to the meeting room. They were told to relax and socialize. It seemed that the woman that had taken an interest in her was talking with a man that had alerted Herriet to a couple other attendees. While she didn't really have qualms with interjecting her attention was now focused elsewhere.

The man, Kaylx, had comically asked about something to eat. This amused Harriet a bit, GAHL had a way of drawing in all kinds of characters. However another voice caused the woman's head to snap up and look around. The voice belonged to another young woman named Abigail, an old friend. While not super close Abigail and Harriet were kindred spirits and trained together before one of them landed a job through the GAHL. Brooks was even there, one of her trainers. Though to be fair she never knew him well. It had been nearly three and a half years since she'd seen either of them and it was almost surreal. 

Taking a step closer she nearly waved and called out their names before catching herself. Maybe suddenly announcing who she was in a crowd wasn't ideal. It's not like they would know it was her. Face it, her transformation had left little untouched other than her humanoid form. It didn't actually cross her mind that she might run into any familiar faces. How exactly does one explain that she was back from the dead (records assumed all were lost when scans failed to pick up any human life) and was somehow turned into a walking plant? That was a tough one. After having a deer in the headlights look for far too long she drew a blank. No choice but to winging it.

Taking an entirely unnecessary breath Harriet made her way over to Brooks and Abigail. Giving them a smile and a wave she spoke up. [color=limegreen]Brooks and Abi. I never expected to see you again."[/color] The total looks of confusion (or potentially slight irritation in the case of Brooks) pretty much confirmed that they had no idea who just walked up or why she acted so familiar with them. Gesturing to her body she shrugged ever so slightly. [color=limegreen]"Sorry, I don't suspect anyone would recognize me like this. It's been a while and I'm not... really... the same."[/color] Words were failing her and the expressions of her companions conveyed that she was doing a poor job of explaining anything.

Alright fine, best to be more direct. [color=limegreen]"It's me, Harriet... You remember right, from training? We used to hang out a lot and put weird things in Brooks food when he wasn't looking. [sub][sub]Sorry.[/sub][/sub]"[/color] She chuckled before looking sheepishly at Brooks standing right there. It's not like he hadn't figured them out forever ago. To seal that she was the real deal, Harriet reached out and grabbed Abi's hand. The two had a reputation for causing trouble and after enough times they worked out a way to pass simple messages through lightly tapping the other's arm. Basically giving the "all's clear" signal she let go and waited for a reaction.
