What would Lia do in this case? Eve will look away, thinking about it realizing -- she would smile and hug her.
Which wasn't hard to do especially when Corrin welcomes her home. When was the last time someone had said this to her? She knew the answer, but would rather not dwell on it...
A smile will appear on her lips as Eve decides to follow her instincts and give Corrin a light hug. What do normal people say in these instances? Lia would say 'thank you' but Eve on the other hand should respond with, "There...aren’t enough words to express my gratitude." Which felt more sincere to say compared to the smile she must be wearing right now.
At this point, Corrin isn't even surprised or embarrassed when Eve leans down to hug her, instead running with it, and putting an arm, lightly, around her back; it is still quite wet, after all. "I'm grateful to you too, you know." She adds. "I was starting to think I might never get a housemate, but I'm really, really glad it's you." And then...maybe as a little "thank you" present and deciding to act on a rather crucial piece of information Eve let slip earlier, she leans into the other girl's ear.
"I'm glad I met you." She whispers into it. And if Corrin's voice gets a bit...huskier, maybe unintentionally, well, would Eve complain? Her ears are her weak spot after all.
Pulling away from the hug with an impish, knowing grin, Corrin claps her hands together. "Okay! Then we need to welcome you here properly, right? This calls for a celebration." And then she just...stands up in the tub. Yes, she's still naked, but they've crossed that bridge already and it's not like Corrin doesn't have anything Eve doesn't. It's nothing new to her, anyway, now that she's had some time to get a little more used to the girl's presence. And maybe finding out she was moving in put Corrin even more at ease around her.
"I just need to dry off and get dressed." She announces, stepping past Even out of the tub. "Then we'll get started on a proper celebratory dinner to welcome you home." She turns and looks down at her friend and now-housemate. "Deal?"
It's probably not going to be the greatest feast in the world; Corrin's cooking skills have improved, a little, but she's still quite a novice. But that's less of a concern than making Eve feel welcome in her new home and treating her to something nice.
