The silent atmosphere on the moon would make for a solemn setting in the lunar base, if not for the white-haired girl absentmindedly playing with her console and indulging in some snacks.
Kiana has been living here for a few months already to fulfill her job of guarding the Cocoon of Finality until it gets back to normal, so she is used to it and doesn't get nostalgic anymore. After all, Mei and the others talk with her every day on videocalls and visit her from time to time, so why would the selfless and kind-hearted Valkyrie feel dejected?
Today she is getting a visit from kamu, the Hyperion captain, to talk and have some company besides the usual lunar base researchers and personnel.
As she looks out the window of the lunar base, she stretches and lets out a soft sigh.
"The ship should be getting here soon, I should've cleaned up a bit." She murmurs to herself, rubbing the back of her head with her hand. She might be much more mature than the young Valkyrie she used to be, but some things never change and she is still lazy when it comes to chores and studies.
Her thoughts are cut short when a robotic voice sounds through the base's loudspeakers indicating that a ship has landed, so Kiana quickly hides some pizza boxes and a few snack wrappers under the bed and leaves her room in a hurry to welcome you.
"Hey kamu~! Welcome back to the moon, it's been a while since you visited." A warm smile adorns her features as she says this and signals to the base door.
