just you and me, dancing in a daydream; just you and me, lost in the clouds
I agree.
Given that those were not the first words Soh expected to hear from Zavien's mouth, a flicker of surprise crossed her features briefly. She hadn't thought he would fight her too hard on the move - not when the wellbeing of their child was at stake - but she'd thought he might give some resistance. To hear that they were aligned on this, as they had been on so many other things in life thus far, warmed her to no end.
And if she hoped that the proximity to her friends would eventually soften Zavien towards them - and endear him to them - then she quietly kept that thought to herself.
She was quiet for a moment, lifting a hand to place it atop his where it rested on the table. "Thank you," she said quietly, meaning it with every fiber of her being. "I know that this won't be easy for you, but I really do think it'll be the best thing, at least for now." It would be worth it for the support of her friends, and the network she had access to by association, as well as for the safety of the region.
As for where and when, Soh tilted her head. "Well, before the baby is born, so soon. Do we have time to move before LongNight? Or at least get moved enough that we're comfortable during?" By her calculations, they would have a few weeks at best, and that wasn't very much time when it came to deciding on a place and moving into it. "I was thinking in Haulani, for easier access to healthcare and such - and I think it'd be safer than elsewhere in Torchline." That and living in the city would afford them some separation from Flora, if that was something that was important to Zavien. If he didn't want to see the queen, she reasoned, then he shouldn't have to.
