this is assuming she joins <3 no rush and no obligation!

Germanicus had gone to speak with Reyson and Fennec assumed he would come back alone. She doubted the soldier would come back to claim his position when he already had three feet in Epoch. It was probably a formality.

@Aquene was back. And as tempting as it was to take a patrol instead, Fennec knew she needed to speak with the woman whose rank she’d, essentially, eliminated entirely. She could make a good Prefect. That wouldn’t mean much if she’d expected to return as Matrona.

Fennec should have known her better before but had avoided her for two specific reasons. The first was resentment. She’d owned up to that a while back; it wasn’t personal. The second was that she’d recognized a sentiment in Aquene that Fennec knew too well. When Bronco disappeared she’d pushed everyone away. Aquene was mature enough not to leave the scarred wake behind her that Fennec had, but that didn’t mean Fennec had felt right shoving herself at the Matrona at the time. She’d been sorting out her own shit - no use combining those powder kegs.

Fennec sought her out in the Tablinum first. She wasn’t sure if the couple would reclaim it - if she wasn’t there, then she would circle the lake and hope to find some trace to follow.
Fenn is blind, and as she's older, will take all of her character insight from tone.  If you are ever uncomfortable with an assumption she makes, please let me know!
