Lion Head Mesa time flows quickly

im gonna CRY

Pharoah is far too kind.

she reminds racharra of her worth, of her status. that she has the freedom to choose, and how to balnce her marriage. she knows this, or at least understands it, and yet she still couldn't believe it.

it's as toula speaks of her as a daughter where racharra breaks. her eyes sting, and her queen's visage — bless her — becomes glassy and hard to see. it's as she blinks, and something hot and wet rolls down her cheeks that racharra understands why. she croaks an apology, and quickly wipes at her traitorous eye with her wrist.
she nods along, less like a noble woman and more like a child, in between a couple of sniffles. how silly she feels, crying over something so puny, so small.

but today, it meant the world.
