ISLA
"You would say something like that." Isla laughs, though she can't help but concede that point to Remi; for a couple of demigods, it really would be no problem at all for them to whip something like that up. "When I have the discussion with Everest, you'll be the first person I call on if we need any help," she promises. "Providing you really do have more time than I do, of course. I'm hardly going to knock on your door and ask for help moving when you've also got a newborn in your arms."
Still, at least they'll be able to celebrate and commiserate together - and no, Isla has never considered in her wildest dreams that this would be something they might get to experience at the same time. It has a gentle smile spreading across her face, one that grows playful at Remi's curious question. "I just said I know what my answer would be," she reminds him. "That answer being yes, Remi." You know, in case it wasn't obvious by their already dating, living together, and having a baby.
Still, she's quite content to let that faux pas slide under the triumph of being right, and she salutes him in return with her teacup before taking another sip and setting it down. "So how is Ronin doing with it all?" she asks in a softer tone. "He must be excited."
