Viridi was admittedly caught off guard by this Arle's display of gratitude. Granted, she expected Arle to appreciate the notion but did not think she would go as far as to give her a hug... especially with this positioning with how anti-touching Arle could be. Goes to show how different these two could be though she was admittedly flustered a bit and lost her composure for a moment as she weakly struggled, too shocked to put any real effort into it.

"Ahem, you're welcome," Viridi replied as she recovered from the sudden hug from the other Arle. Though, she supposes it's good that she is willing to help... Though Viridi was honestly not expecting the girl's next proposal. She admits, she was considering asking if she could but she held off on the idea of her asking Arle to see her. Though, she was a bit surprised that the original Arle would offer it herself. The nature goddess considered it for a moment because she was beginning to question if she was really ready to have her back...

"If I may, Lady Viridi," Arlon's voice contacted Viridi as it seemed he was listening in on her. Well, can't say she expected him to take the risk of it not being her. "Didn't I tell you to turn off the camera here, Arlon?" she asked aloud. "That may be true, but as you know, I am experienced with illusions. There was not something quite right but it appears it turned out well for the moment."

"Sure you noticed. What is the reason you contacted me?" the goddess of nature asked Arlon to get back on track. "Of course. I just think you should accept. Might as well deal with one distraction if you are adding another on, correct?" Arlon inquired his apparent advice. Well, he did have a good point. "... Alright, Arle, if you can get the other Arle to see me, I would appreciate it... Though, I want to talk with someone else before  I talk to her," Viridi spoke up to the girl.

"..?" Warle lolled her head in mild confusion. She'd noticed the way Viridi seemed uncomfortable with her hug--but what had she done to deserve that? Had she done something wrong? Was Viridi just not a fan of hugs? Somehow the terrible loneliness that came with being in the void for eons had taught her a longing for the such innocent comforts, so long as they were with someone she trusted of course. She found herself conflicted about how to feel. Maybe it was just tough for Viridi to warm up to her? There could be so many reasons the other couldn't return her feelings. Such was the life of someone 'out of touch with reality'. The red-clad Arle was quiet as the other spoke with Arlon, taking this opportunity to compile her thoughts. What was it Viridi would ask of her when it came to specific orders? How would it line up with what Lidelle had asked of her? She hoped the other understood that her humanity had been stolen from her by the void. That was still something she was struggling to get back. It wasn't until she was spoken to that her attention was pieced back together.

"...Who's that?" she wound up curiously asking, wondering who it was exactly that Viridi intended to have a talk with. She seemed to have grown comfortable and relaxed again.

Viridi closed her eyes for a moment as she thought about her reasoning again. Would this truly help her out... There was still quit e a bit about this emotion she did not understand... She needed to speak with someone that understood it better before talking with Arle again. "... Princess Peach. She seems pretty adamant in her knowledge about love. I would never thought Arle would leave me like that without a word... Just goes to show there is much to learn there, huh? I don't know if it will help much but I just need help clarifying a few things for myself..." Viridi explained before opening her eyes.

"Oh yeah, and... sorry about the hug. With how the other Arle is, it came as a surprise as all. I don't really get that much, it's nothing to do with you. Thanks," Viridi added, seeming to have noticed that Warle did not take her resisting too well.

" . . . It's alright. I've been alone for so long, and I hated every minute of it. I'm sorry if I'm a little bit more 'clingy' than she was. It's funny you bring up Princess Peach. She thinks love is what I need to begin healing. ...I guess it's one of the nicer medicines to take, so I'm not complaining. Honestly, I didn't expect anyone to be capable of ...'loving' me, but she seems to have a really big heart. I guess you're probably right. If anyone can help, it's her." Warle softly replied.
