[When her eyes end up on the slightly easier smile she blinks, uncertain why, exactly, it came about but not at all displeased. The emphasis on 'you' makes her pause a little longer until she guesses at what it might mean (that it's odd for her to be seperate from Kairi), and her expression, while still maintaining a smile, grows a tiny bit sheepish. The reason she guesses that is likely that it's still on her mind. It's weird for her to hear something resembling a compliment.]
