He owes her so much more than that. But right here, right now, in this moment, Strange can't think of anything except that Arabella's here and he's with her and this is the happiest he's been in ages. As she wraps her arms around his neck, Strange wraps his arms around Arabella's waist, pulling her close to him as they embrace.

"Of course I've more to say," he murmurs in her ear, not letting go of Arabella. He knows he owes her an explanation about the scales, the eyes, the mirrored scratches on his wrists that his shirtsleeves only barely hide. But he's far too happy to see her to bring that up right away. That will wait a bit. "But why not start with the most important thing first?"

And then they can go to the second most important thing, which is to remind Arabella that he's just so happy to see her, and then the third most important thing which is kisses and then he can address the mirrored elephant in the room. A perfect strategy!
