"Good, I've been good," Marina said as she hugged him, having to reach up a fair way to loop her arms around his neck. "Haven't seen you since- well, ages," was what she settled on, a wry smile on her lips filling in the rest of what she'd been going to say. No need to bring up Giles' wedding if it could be helped.

"You look good," she told him with a nod, glad to see he hadn't fallen into some state of disrepair without her around the show. Hopefully they'd picked up another assistant who was just as bossy with the two of them, and hopefully who wasn't going to sleep with Giles.
