[ milly doesn't say anything, just immediately throws her arms around riptide's neck or...however much of it she can, and hugs him surprisingly tight for someone so small. ]
[okay for a genuine moment, he thinks he's being strangled. he's obviously, not, though and he can't hug milly back but he stays still and lets her do what she wants.]
Yes! Yeah, I did. [ when milly pulls back to hover at eye level with riptide, she's beaming and there might be tiny tears in the corners of her eyes, but shhhh. ] Thank you, Riptide. That was -- it was a really nice thing to say. All of it.
[ pssh riptide you can give her a tiny pap with your finger, she's a big girl, she can take it. ]
Oh, Riptide... [ milly's mouth twists into a helpless smile. ] You're my friend. Yes, I was mad at you, but I didn't want to be mad at you. I know you meant what you said. That's enough for me.
[ milly positively beams at him, clasping her hands behind her back. ]
That's what friends do, Riptide. They forgive each other. [ her smile goes a little wry. ] If I held a grudge every time someone acted out, I wouldn't have very many friends.
[ milly blinks in confusion at the request, but he's smiling and that's such a nice sight that she doesn't mind complying -- even though strictly speaking she always prefers to fly around cybertronians, because she doesn't like yelling up at someone from the floor. but she complies, drifting down until her feet touch the ground. hands on hips, she looks up at riptide. ]
[riptide dims his optics in concentration, then... his holoform flickers into life just next to milly. it claps and cheers happily then jumps on her in a big ol' hug.
[ milly squeaks in surprise and then in delight as she gets a hug -- a real hug from this admittedly super cute girl that is also apparently riptide. milly hugs back, pretty tightly, although not rib-crushing tightly, but either way it's probably good that the holoform isn't a real person. ]
Oh my gosh! Riptide, I didn't know you could do this!

Why don't you do that more? Like, wouldn't it be more convenient for moving around the ship? Or...does it only work short range?
