"You like it, huh? They're traditional for Guardians this time of year. And Ghost's hat is great, isn't it? Our friend Steve gave it to him." Blaze lets her pumpkin helm drop back onto her shoulders and wraps an arm over the Doctor's shoulders to pull him into a quick squeeze of a hug. She's gotten stronger, since they met, but she's better at measuring her strength too, not to squash the wind from her organic friends.

"It's nice to see you, Ghost says more shyly. "Although I'm almost surprised it took this long to meet you here."

"Seems like your kind of place," Blaze agrees, releasing the Doctor. "So, are you going to stay a while? We come round to patrol the area pretty regularly."
