[ The wait isn't so bad as Em uses that time to take a break from her stressful state and tries to gather her thoughts, collect herself and try to immerse back into her usual calm spirit of mind, regardless of the situation she's in.
Poppy arrives in a fashion this Em is not used to see; cleaner, looking very healthy, but maybe a little less attentive, alert (you have to be alert like a prey in her world). Her clothes too, much prettier than usual as comfort always triumphs fashion back home, especially since nothing good comes from impractical wear. Nevertheless, it is Poppy and a familiar face in a foreign place is more comforting than warm tea in a cold night. ]
