[Alphinaud was not the only one who kept concerns over the other's well being to themselves. She had, after all, watched from afar the events that had transpired. Perhaps even begun to see what he had seen in those adventurers they had continuously run into when they had first arrived in Eorzea. Of course only Urianger was very briefly told a semblance of this, as she did so attempt to keep her inquiries to a minimum.
Though perhaps this evening would be different, as she looked out amongst the crowd of adventurers in the more traditional garb associated with the Moonfire Faire. There was work to be done, however... today was one day she could put that aside. She was not one to let her comrades go without a moment's reprieve, after all. Especially during a true remembrance of those who gave their lives or were lost in the wake of the Calamity some six years prior.
It was also a convenient time to meet with family, as she was indeed looking amongst the crowd of adventurers and Lominsans alike. That those she espied were enjoying themselves left behind a lukewarm feeling, for while she knew moments like these were reasons their grandfather had given his life... she could not help but be selfish and wish she could have shared a moment of watching the fireworks with their grandfather one last time.
Though no sooner had the thought crossed her mind than she had at last found her brother at the railing. Much as her heart would want to linger on such desires (and likely would later), she knew it best to focus on her sibling first.]
...Brother? [She only said in hopes of announcing her presence before falling into place beside him. To an ordinary bystander, it likely seemed as though the two had never been apart.] I do hope I have not kept you waiting long.
[A semi-truth. Honestly she was not quite certain how best to proceed when she received the request from Urianger, but at least for his sake was the notion humoured. He had been putting up with her stubbornness for quite some time, after all.]
...oh. Hello, brother. :|
