Redsand Canyon 'cause we were misfits

-cackles in chaos-

Perhaps she should have stayed her tongue, but it was not like her. It would be going against the very fiber of her nature to not speak her mind as such. The Imperator and Matrona both knew who she was at this point, and so even if it were needless venting over a situation that was not to be changed, she would do so until she was simply told to shut up. In essence, that was what the subject change was; she was telling herself to shut up. “Laying on your side would be best, however it feels most comfortable.” As she worked, they should shift the Matrona from one side to another if they needed to. She recalled learning the technique from her mother to soothe her own pains when she had been expecting.
 
She started to speak, and Aquene’s eyes softened. She was not sure where it was going, speaking of her work and her sacrifices. It was all she had known, and while she might gripe about decisions that had been made, Mereo had been more of a home to her than all the other places she had been combined. The Matrona was right, it was not easy, however it was well worth it. Her eyes softened, her heart raced for a moment as she remained quiet for a moment, the shock overtaking her.
 
Perhaps she would have offered some touching words, a thanks to the Matrona for the faith she placed in the young woman, but instead her stomach churned uncomfortably and she found herself poking her head outside of the palazzo, promptly emptying the contents of her stomach in a lackluster acceptance compared to anything she might be able to find off her tongue. She’d been doing that a lot, almost all day--.
 
Shit.
 
She tucked her head back inside with a shy expression on her features. “I… thank you, Matrona…” What else was there really to say after the display she had just caused. She’d have to make sure to clean up her mess as well lest the smell haunt the leading duo in their den. No, that would not do. She felt the heat of embarrassment rise in her cheeks. “I am honored by the faith you and your husband have put in me thus far, allowing me to use my skills for the better here.” If she ignored it, then it would surely not come up, right?
