Redsand Canyon seems a pity not to take a chance

Germanicus spoke of the situation with Tamar and Arsenio is such a manner as to not invite further discussion, and so Ruenna let his statements stand without commentary. It was not entirely out of the ordinary, when new packs to split off of old ones, for several members to trade one membership for another. Hopefully Pharaoh would see reason. 

Germanicus suggested a change of venue, and his choice of words called to mind their previous conversation on the subject of Mereo, whispered conspiratorially in the catacombs of Akashingo. She smiled at their inside joke, eyes twinkling. "Yes, let's." She pulled herself to her feet a bit awkwardly-- her days of grace were long behind her-- and waited to be shown inside. 

Although they had already spoken on several topics, Ruenna was so far struck by the feeling that they weren't really talking. Or rather, that there was something large and glaring that they were talking around. The elephant in the room, so to speak. They had just agreed to be committed partners to one another, but no words had yet been spoken on what that truly meant. Were they both to be rulers here, as equals, or would Ruenna hold a subservient role? Were they to be husband and wife, in every sense-- what had come of Germanicus's entangled feelings for Crowfeather?

"I would like for you to teach me the ways of a Roman, Germanicus, when you have the time to do so. I would like to be one too, if such a thing is possible." Ruenna was for the most part ignorant of Germanicus's culture, and since she intended to be a good wife to him, that meant she would need to learn. She also thought this request might help break the ice for them, and help them broach the subject of what they could expect from their partnership.

"For instance, you call me Lady Ruenna." She smiled. It was one of Germanicus's quirks, and she liked it. "Shall I call you My Lord?" What would make him comfortable? In general, Ruenna has the sense that Germanicus was uncomfortable presently; there was something stilted about their conversation. She meant to get to the bottom of it, so they could start things off on the right foot.
