I'm Lenalee Lee. [a firm shake. an Akuma would have killed me as soon as I jumped off that tree, so it should be fine, right?] I just arrived today. They're called months back in my world too, but... I don't know if the seasons here are the same as mine.
[regardless, he's been here for a while, huh... She looks down at his hand in her own and her shoulders slump as the thought sets in, but then she lets go once she realizes that she's just been staring at his hand a little more than necessary.]
Still. It's nice to meet you, Syrlya. You helped me when you didn't have to, so I'm grateful for that.
