With her arms wrapped tightly around his neck and her toes barely touching the ground, Eva tried to soak up as much of him as she could from one single embrace. He smelled different, exotic, not bad, but not the earthy outside, almost pine tree scent she remembered of their previous home. Of course four long years in the Amazon would do that, she supposed. The feel of him was entirely the same though. That solid, sturdy frame that gave the absolute best hugs. For the first time in a long time, Eva felt almost whole again.

When he finally let go, Eva mirrored his movement to take a look at him. Where he found her largely unchanged, Eva thought he looked rather different. Maybe the Amazon had taken its toll, maybe it was the lingering grief they both felt, but she thought for once, he was starting to look his age. Not that she would ever say that, but it was to be expected, she supposed and truthfully, just a little worrisome.

Laying a hand atop the one he kept on her shoulder, Eva sighed softly, accompanied by a quiet chuckle. "But you wouldn't be you if you had." It was true-to-form for him to just show up on a whim. "I've missed you." Oh had she ever. Eva did not begrudge him his grieving process after losing her mother, everybody dealt differently, but Merlin she really had missed him.
