"No, I haven't met her. But yeah, you should thank him. God knows I did. Probably too much- I was just glad for the spell to be finally broken." Bela is fine with lingering by the doorway and remaining like this. Hands touching, barely any space between them, and just taking each other in after being apart for so long.

"Diana is someone I have spoken to, back during the whole fog incident. I will thank her." At some point, Bela decides, feeling like she has to say something to Diana for freeing an important person she doesn't think she can do without.

"Well, you haven't lost me, James." She replies softly, voice wavering with emotion that was difficult for Bela to hide. "Are you trying to make me cry? Because I think you might succeed if you keep saying things like that."

Happy tears of course. Forgive her for still getting used to having people think about her in that way.
