[Hilda's expression warms at Ori's words, and she sways slightly in order to give her friend an affectionate bump of her shoulder.]

I'm glad I got to meet you, too. I've made some really, really great friends like you here.

[She sips her tea and brightens up.]

If we can't bring our friends from home here, at least we can imagine what it'd be like for them if they did? Think of it as a fun thought exercise. [And a way to lighten the mood and keep things from getting too sappy.] Especially those people who would freak out. Are any of your friends the fussy type who would have a conniption fit about sleeping in a tree?
