[ 'It's been a while'? Wow, that... is probably the most stilted, awkward response he possibly could have given to the girl that he was prosaically gushing over all night a month ago. This is not the reaction Malon expected to receive if she ever met the mysterious prince again.
Because, of course, she has fantasized more than once about what such a reunion might be like. And it usually involves significantly more poetic gushing about lost loves finally found, accompanied by unreasonable amounts of fluttering rose petals.
