Aurelia
and my hands aren't clean
maybe they never will be
maybe they never will be
Aurelia is aware of the dance of politics and she has no intention of doing the tango with a woman she's never even met before, over a region she is not certain she needs the help of. These matters are heavy, and complex, and she only bristles at the idea of being pinned down so early on.
She scarcely feels as if she's had any time to breathe at all, but she respectfully gives Juniper the attention needed for everything the Diplomat has to say. While she listens, her knee brushes up against the side of Maeve's leg, leaning into the supportive presence and words of her fellow queen.
"As of now, Safrin has only advised us to concern ourselves with Torchline's needs," Aurelia states reiteratively, feeling an offense of her own at being pushed but keeping a level head, "and as of now, Torchline is not in need of an alliance... Is there something going on in the Greatwood? Are you having problems with the Ascended right now?" She presses her brows together, wondering if perhaps there is something afoot, something she has not caught wind of, that the Greatwood is in need of aid for.

but they can still carry you home
when you're ready to sleep
