Heh. Lulu almost reassured by the fact that no matter how many things have changed, Wakka can still annoy her. Cute!
Very good bit of interaction between Lulu and Rikku, with the older guardian tucking her own fears and concerns out of sight and being the grown-up Rikku needs. Not enough people explore the interesting dynamic between the two of them -- Rikku looking up to her, a little envious of her, but Lulu evidently accepting and even protective of her, to judge by the way she reassured her after Wakka's Al Bhed snit.
Ah, I'm babbling. Anyway, I continue to enjoy the story. This little bit so very Rikku: "this place is so cold and... not flat!"
