Alice would be lying if she said that Revan's sudden appearance behind her wasn't startling. He was, after all, known for being quite intimidating with the deadliness to match. Alice's first reaction once she heard his voice was to turn around with a look of disbelief at the fact that he had even bothered to come down and greet her personally. Then she remembered as to why he was so disturbed by her magical presence and a pang of guilt overcame her. She ignored it for now, smiling at the man who looked at her as if she was a piece of meat rather than a person.
"[color=Coral]Revan? Well this is a surprise. It's been far too long.[/color]" Alice's first instinct would normally be to give her old comrade a hug, but she knew that Revan probably wouldn't appreciate the gesture. Reluctantly, she settled for a simple respectful nod of her head. Revan made a comment about whether or not Alice could handle joining the guild in her current state. For a moment it even felt like he was concerned about her.
"[color=Coral]What happened to me is in the past. I'm doing my best to move on and being back in Magnolia is going to help me achieve that.[/color]" She failed to mention the nights she still woke up crying or the panic attacks that occurred every so often, but the last thing she wanted to seem was weak. She needed to prove that she was worth something to the guild and that she wouldn't be a liability.

Matisuki Kiryuin was the next person to greet her, appearing to have finished dealing with the new mage. Alice took note of all the youngsters that had surrounded themselves around the S Class before they went off to fight with Hana.
"[Color=Coral]It's good to see you Matt.[/color]" Alice gave a welcoming embrace to her old comrade. "[color=Coral]I didn't know you were so good with the kids.[/color]" She made the comment in jest, already feeling comfortable with these familiar faces. When Matt welcomed her back, Alice couldn't help but smile and correct him.
"[color=Coral]Actually, it's Alice Kisaragi now.[/color]" She held out her hand to Matt so that he could clearly see the ornately crafted golden engagement ring that sat gently on her finger. "[Color=Coral]Professionally I still go by Doctor Vetrov, but otherwise I decided to change my name to my husbands. He and our son will be visiting tomorrow. I can't wait for everyone to meet them[/color]".
