Cordelia
"I'm sure it wasn't bad, Tal." The Shrike replied easily, "But it doesn't change that it was a long time." Cordelia didn't have much room to talk herself. Not when she had sequestered herself from others for years, choosing that instead of allowing herself the connection she desperately needed, thinking it was better that way. Still, there was no judgement coming from the Attuned.
His response is enough for her to put the pieces together. Much like herself, Tal didn't associate with many people. In truth, she could count them on her hands. Noah, Deimos, and Sah. Maybe Hotaru, but given that the younger man had said him it easily ruled out the Valkyrie. Her brow arched and a noncommittal hum pushed past her lips, "Well, I avoided him for a while. I didn't know what to do." She admitted, lifting her shoulders in a slight shrug. "But I owned up to the fact that I was wrong with how I reacted. I acknowledged what I did and I apologized. It wasn't easy, but I tried to see it from his side of things."
She'd talked to Deimos and Tal both about it. How she felt about what happened. How she struggled to accept that there was nothing Sah could have done to prevent it. How much it all hurt. The Attuned paused, turning suddenly to face him and making him stop short before her. "I can tell you this, though... Whatever happened isn't worth just leaving alone. If you care about him and I know you do, then you should talk to him again."
