Moonspear You got words to say, Sister.

Sure, Pie replied. She didn’t even have to think about it. I’ll always be candid with you, Tiki, and I want you to do the same. I can’t say it’s fun, knowing I’ve upset you, but I’m glad you came to me and told me. I’m glad I know, so now I can make it right, she repeated the sentiment.

Tikaani wanted to know how she felt about everything. Tiuttuk hesitated, though only for a beat. She gently pressed her shoulder against her sister’s.

I’ll be okay, eventually. But I’d be lying if I told you I was okay right now. I’ve been through so much lately. It’s a lot to process and obviously I’m not handling it all perfectly. But I’m glad we talked today. It helped in its way.

The Regent blew out a breath. Part of her wanted to seek space in the aftermath, though she quelled it. She wouldn’t push Tiki away. Besides, there was something they could do together right now that might go a long way in reinforcing their bond.
