Alex slightly coughed as Naisha squeezed her neck in joy. [color=salmon]"Need to... breathe."[/color] she murmured, but grinned cheerfully before her eyes looked at the people who apparently were taking care of them. The giant red head tilted her head questionably at the explanation, trying to process it. Ears twitching a bit with her thoughts, though they stuck straight up as Naisha drew a finger across her cheek when mentioning, she just needed Alex. Instantly, the amazon's face turned as bright as her hair, blue eyes shrinking as they blinked in confusion. Her face clearly saying 'what the fuck is going on?' yet nothing was said. Coughing to clear her throat, she finally managed to speak. [color=salmon]"Yeah... same... Adventuring was fun and all, but Nai made it the best of fun. Chilling out on a island just feels like home."[/color] she said as she thought about it. Blinking a bit more as she watched Naisha and listened to her words. It was... a little off putting. This Naisha was quite different from the one she remembered from just moments ago in Alex's mind. Some things were the same, but it was apparent her best friend had quite a bit of change Alex was unaware of. If whatever deity did bring them both here, it seemed to wait in different times for both of them. Or was it just waiting for Naisha to bite it too? And it happened to be awhile back in their world? Course to Alex, it didn't feel that long ago. Glancing at Monica at her question and the one known as Roy's answer, Alex's face twitched and flushed. [color=salmon]"We're childhood friends!"[/color] she huffed, crossing her arms over her chest in embarrassment. Though she couldn't help but notice Naisha a bit. Hard to when she's pressed as close as she can to the taller woman. Usually, it was Alex who was the clingy one. But, this clinginess felt a little different. Wonder why? Probably because Naisha had gone without Alex for so long? It made Alex a little happy she was missed so much. Was that a asshole thing to feel? Probably. As Naisha stated words on magic, Alex gave a soft laugh. [color=salmon]"I dunno. You remember all the times I tried to use magic? Doesn't go well."[/color] she snickered.
