Era would recognize Aymeric anywhere. She doubts there's any way she wouldn't be able to recognize him. He was the only good memory she had of childhood. Her big brother. Her first and only love as she grew older. He was family, until he wasn't. She doesn't even remember how they lost touch.
Era had still been very young when he left - too young to feel happiness for Aymeric finding a family. Instead she had been angry; snapped at everyone, including the young man himself. She was so hurt that she ignored all his attempts to keep in touch, and by the time she realized what a mistake that was... Well, Era figured Aymeric was better off without her presence anywhere near his life.
But now he's here in the flesh with eyes bluer than in her memories and face filled with a recognition she never expected to see. It's impossible to keep the stunned expression from twisting her face, though Era is equally impossibly quick to cover it back up (the blush though - that she can do nothing about).
"Esther," she intones pointedly, surreptitiously glancing around at the nearby authorities.
