It had only been a short while since Alex had left Julius, but to be back was far from a hardship. The flight down with Karl had been one of interrogation and prodding before her brother clammed up as only he could manage, but it was nice to have some time with just the two of them, even if it silent for the majority of the trip.
She had just brushed her lips against Julius's cheek in greeting before moving past him into the house, her eyes lighting on Ryan even as she heard Enola and Jamie bringing up the rear. There would be plenty of time to sit down with everyone in time.
"Ryan! Where have you been hiding yourself, I haven't seen you in a good while," she greeted him as well with a brief peck to the cheek. "I do apologize I wasn't there a few months back. They had me trapped dealing with the missile crisis elsewhere or else I would have never missed the opportunity to have seen you paraded about for the greater good."
