Elizabeth
Her smile stays firmly on her features, proud despite knowing little about the young woman. She nods her head at the information, not in the least bit bothered by the mentioned career. Morals, professions, and decisions are not something she judges; her only job is to make sure that they can live comfortably in the life they've chosen. As such, she's unfazed when she leans back against the bench. "I guess that's somewhat comforting, knowing that she's keeping an eye on you even when it doesn't feel like it." Something like a shadowy guardian angel.
Taking another bite of her vanishing bread and jelly, Elizabeth chuckles. She lifts a finger in concession to the argument, smiling in amusement. "Oh. Well, I can't blame you there. I'm a sucker for a good pastry. When you come visit me, I'll be sure to make you something" Usually it's scones or muffins in the rough Halo climate, but she's been known to make the occasional pie or croissant.
The playful grin on her face softens when she sees the anxieties play across Theea's features, her hand tensing. Leaning gently into her, she lets out all the warmth and reassurance heat her words. "You'll soon discover that Caido is smaller than it seems, and there are plenty of good people who would be more than happy to help you through it all." Even if it's not here, she can name multiple people easily, having been the recipient of many kind words during her venture on her own. She hopes Theea might find the same in her journey.

There is beauty in the journey, regardless of the outcome.
Let's grieve and hope and fight together.
