Thalassa
Scoffing, Thal's tail flicks below the water. "What a coward. She'd rather hide behind her powerful" she pauses to emphasize "bestfriend than tell you no." Granting a wicked grin, she makes a sound that might have been a snicker, eyes gleaming. "Maybe you should be flattered." Thal wouldn't call Colt 'intimidating,' but maybe her confidence could come off too strong for someone with such a delicate countenance.
She listens patiently as Colt lays out the rest of the scenario, unsurprised to hear that Flora chose to confront her at the party. The woman has a penchant for drama as everyone in Torchline knows. Thal might have joked or laughed about it if the rancher didn't look so down about it, and as the brunt of the repercussions are spoken, she can't really blame her.
Pursing her lips, Thal chews on the words and waits until Colt's done talking. She looks more at the ceiling than the woman next to her, piecing through the facts with a seriousness that sharpens her features, the low light framing her words as she encourages, "Sounds like your council will be stronger without them." It's unfortunate that Zavien had turned out to be with Sohalia, but it's probably for the best if he was willing to support a woman like that - although Thal doesn't know who else that leaves for Hak Etme's council.
The other negative is the more serious of the two, and she tries to lighten it with a bit of teasing in her tone, even if her expression lacks the same levity. "Sucks about Flora though. She's not an enemy you want to have, even if her drama is very fun to hear about." It's another thing to be in the drama, and Thal has no doubt that the powerful leader will make Colt's life very difficult if she wants to. It could leave the new region isolated and with more enemies than allies.
Her eyes find the woman's, something deep and unspoken in her gaze as she asks, "What are you gonna to do now?"
