[ Truth be told, she hadn't been sure where to visit first. Her heart wants to see Lantis and Eagle in equal parts that it's too difficult to decide plainly. It's only the fact that Hikaru is more familiar with where the garden is that she had managed to make a choice at all. ]
It will be my first time seeing him awake again. [ Her cheeks flush at the thought of coming face to face with Eagle, with seeing those clear eyes of his no longer filled with sadness. ]
[What is she worried about? Of all the people Lantis knew (or maybe it should be: of all the people he allowed close) Hikaru was the one Lantis would have the most trouble imagining in a situation she could not handle. This girl was a natural. She loved people and people loved her back. Including Lantis. No wonder she was chosen to be the Pillar of Cephiro, as flawed as the system was. But she knows that, does she not?]
I have no doubt it will go well. He is also excited to see you.
[ Hikaru smiles. The thought of both Eagle and Lantis being excited to see her makes the butterflies in her stomach swarm about. If only she knew what to do to make them settle! ]
I'm excited to see you, too. And Eagle.
[ She looks down at her lap and idly flicks away imaginary dust from her skirt. ]
It's just that...you've known Eagle for much longer than I have. Everything Eagle and I know about each other is from the middle of battle and confusion. What if things are too different now?
[Lantis wants to tell her that it will be all fine. Fear not, the immense strength of your heart is on your side. Hikaru, he wants to see you as much as you want to see him, without any doubt as much as Lantis himself wanted to see you. Precisely because Lantis has known Eagle for so long he is now able to see the parallels between how they feel...
Lantis is not as skilled with putting his thoughts and feelings into proper words as he is with sword and magic.]
Have some trust in yourself. And in Eagle.
[And in me, he wants to add. He takes a step towards the fiery haired girl and places a hand on her shoulder. A simple gesture of reassurance, maybe. But hopefully his actions will speak louder than words]

No. I came right here after we arrived.

I'm not sure if I'll know what to say.

[After a short pause, he speaks once again]
And so am I, obviously.
