#tataru.

"--That means more than ye know, comin' from ye, Ta." Tataru had been the first Scion Meiko had ever met, and she had greeted her with genuine empathy. She tucked the flower into her hair and then leaned over to give the Lalafell a fond squeeze. "M'proud o' ye as well. We've both come a long way, havenae we?"

"Have ye?" Meiko couldn't help but sigh, nodding warily. She worried about herself, too! And everyone else. Reaching over, she put a hand on Tataru's shoulder with a weak smile. "I appreciate it, Ta. Truly. I cannae say ye wilnae always have somethin' tae worry aboot with me, but... know that knowin' ye care is one o' the things that help me carry on when shite's tough."

Meiko still has the blood pearl Tataru gave her! She had it sewn into her dancers' garb. Hiko has his somewhere, too. It's in his room in the FC.

"Lass, need I remind you, you got me a swivin' private island?" Meiko laughed, shaking her head as she knelt down to pull Tataru into a hug. "Not tae mention everythin' you've ever done since we met -- all th'way back tae makin' me feel like I wasnae a complete outcast first joinin' the Scions!" She hugged her tight. "I love you, lass. As far as m'concerned, I'll be playin' catch up tae what you do for me an' th'Scions for three lifetimes over. Willnae stop me, though."

Meiko wears essentially the same outfit in post-Shadowbringers and main story Endwalker because she brought the outfit (Neo Ishgardian) in the First and Tataru remade it similar-but-better (Ophiotauroskin). And in her signature pink!
