Carl opened the portal and led them through, finding a very dishevelled Kyubi and Klaire at the kitchen island. "You two seem to be enjoying the new situation, but if you truly feel indebted Kyubi, could you please cover up in front of my darling?"
Kyubi dragged Klaire off to tidy themselves, then returned in a much more presentable condition a moment later. "I really am Gaia, truly, so much... I can't express how thankful I am. Carl and Klaire both, they mean the world to me, between them and the children I-..."
"You have regained nothing Kyubi. I hate to say this dear, nothing you lost can be regained, but I hope this new life somehow makes the pain of it as distant as the moon you adore."
Kyubi visibly aged slightly then approached and hugged her. "Thank you Gaia and sorry Carl, I was acting immature and chaotic. I haven't been that way in centuries I swear."
"It's fine Kyubi, I hope you two had fun, but I think you should maybe apologise to Lydia for the bluntness."
