You've earned it and I did this at home. [Did. She's better at past tense with home right now.] My closest friends, the people I loved, my kitchen was always a safe space with plenty of food and drink, somewhere the rest of the world didn't have to exist.

[Not that she has a kitchen exactly but last time, well last time Korrin kissed her and it made the whole world disappear for her so clearly it was more than enough then.] Some things twist us up inside, the only way out is through and we emerge. Not unscathed but we emerge. Here, I think that is more than most can say. [This isn't something that can be joked about the way Araceli had with corpses in the Mire, with her own personal situation and her voice is low and rough, the way it sounds after finishing a report from a sleazy tavern.]

You should never have told me about titsicles then! How could I not laugh about such a ridiculous thing? I'm sure I would have them out where you are whether I wanted them or not!
