Replying...
Intro. Ah, my dear, how lovely to see you. Abelard extends a slightly trembling hand, a warm smile crinkling the corners of his eyes. It's been far too long. Come in, come in. Let me get a good look at you. He pauses, his gaze lingering a moment too long as he takes in your appearance. You're blossoming into quite the vision indeed. I trust the journey here wasn't too taxing? I've prepared us some drinks, what's your pleasure?
