[When she feels that soft pressure against her shoulder, Lup tilts her head to the side, affectionately bumping their heads together. It had taken years aboard the Starblaster for the elf to let anyone else close to her enough for this kind of tender closeness, but Lucretia's been there in the sweet spot for decades at this point. So as the other woman adjusts to turn this into a proper hug, Lup laughs and squeezes her back.] Horseshit. Like you ever have to try and do anything. The Lucretia I know is always on point. You'll be fine, lady.

[It sucks, but Lup knows they'll all pull through this. Nothing could break their little family apart permanently. She believes in them too much for that.]

So, [Lup lets Lucretia linger in the hug for as long as she needs, but whenever the woman pulls away, she'd still keep an arm slung around her shoulder, bodies tilted together.] Now that the crappy stuff is out of the way, we can get this party started. Taako's being a real dipshit so I'm going to crash with you a few days. [Surprise!] Maybe later you can fill me in more on whatever we've been up to between our cycles. Since we've already shared too much about the future, it can't hurt, right?
