Ana was only slightly taken aback when Pidge suddenly appeared next to her. After all, she was able to go invisible herself, so it wasn't out of the question that someone else might also be able to do the same.

Looking up at the young girl, Ana's face softened. She was reminded of her daughter at that age.

"Penny for your thoughts, dear?" she asked, patting the ground next to her, inviting Pidge to sit down. Her smile was warm and inviting.

She didn't want to prod unnecessarily, but she was also a mother. It was in her nature to want to help.
