"I can't believe my eyes! Ohhh, I missed you so much, you have no idea..." The priest would just keep going on and on at this rate. The hug wasn't going to end for a while, made apparent by the way he clung tight as though the act of letting go would lose sight of him for untold stretches of time. "It's so good to have you around, it really is."
