Jude is similarly unaware that this kind of love is one that can muddle the waters, but have the strongest foundations if they have the courage to pursue it. Sohalia seems to share the sentiment as she doesn’t let the tension descend fully upon them, and Jude’s chest warms with that familiar affection that he is now a little daunted to realize might be more than simple admiration of her spirit.
Still, he won’t let her tread these shaky roads alone, and though Jude has never been the brave one between them he would follow her anywhere. Even into precarious conversations.
“Yeah, Nature Frey. I was thinking we could visit the shrine here in Torchline right after we get the earrings made? That way we don’t have to wait for your next visit.” Surely there are Old God shrines in Stormbreak, but Jude privately thinks it’s rather lacking in the nature department, so perhaps Torchline is better anyway. They receive their food quickly - Jude’s his standard fare of egg whites, sausage, and a side of maple syrup for his eggs because he is a heathen - and Jude smiles sweetly at Mona. “Thanks Mo’. You’re the best.” Only to blush slightly as she winks and waves over her shoulder to go take care of another table. She has always been charming but given his recent revelation, any amount of insinuation feels like scrubbing his insides with steel wool.
