She looked up at him as he spoke, emerald eyes fixed on the particularly enchanting orange of his gaze. A frown grew on her face as he spoke, admitting he had been less than welcomed by Furiosa. "She is...a different lot, certainly." Isley offered quietly, reaching up to gently nudge his cheek. "I am sorry I was not there to hear your song." She mused quietly. While she was finding herself more at peace in The Family it seemed that Palisander had not felt the same way; had not had the same experiences as she had. "I do not want you unhappy." She said softly, licking her lips a bit anxiously. 

"Promise me that you do not put aside your happiness for mine." She said as she looked up at him, giving a soft sigh at the prospect of Palisander being unhappy and knowing that she had a small part in it. "There was a peculiar male that came sniffing about. Had the strangest accent, it was hard to understand." Isley said, referring to Maude. "I offered to teach the Family some healing arts in case there is a need when they are beyond my reach." That was something she could have Palisander's help in, she felt, if he was willing.
