“Don’t worry about it,” she tries to soothe, sounding very much like an older sister. Leave those things to me for now, she wants to say, explore and live, she wants to say, but she is not yet so adept at comforting. It’s one of the things she needs to work on.
And then, there’s a slight admonishment and it does indeed sound so simple. From the mouths of babes, she thinks, enjoying the different view of the world that Osozo brings. The Wraith acquiesces to their statement with a smile. “You’re right, of course.” Still fascinated by their hair, she runs her fingers through the tips in a familiar, affectionate way - big steps for someone who doesn’t even usually accept hugs.
“Mmmm. Stronger together. I would love to see us work together more. Strengths working together to complement the family as a whole…” If it’s a wistful statement, it is perhaps because she meant it to be. The possibility seems so distant - even without Sam’s defection. “Anyway... Final thoughts or concerns or wishes before I have to go?”
