MAEA
Always with the simple solutions. That, and the easy affection he kept showering her with drew a faint smile back to her lips, and warmed the color of her eyes into something a little less distant. She leaned into the embrace, too grateful for the way he never quite tired of offering support to argue or drag up tired conversations again. She did trust him. If he said it would be fine, she would just have to believe it.
"I guess I can stick around and listen, if either of them show up. No promises I won't run screaming after a bit, though." And she could stop trying to avoid encounters too, she supposed. Much like she had agreed to do with Sunjata. It might take a while before she was ready to actively seek anyone out - but Amun had promised that she could take her time. So she would.
It was her turn to shake her head. No further challenges came to mind. "I've got nothing. We can always come back another day, if you feel like practicing some more." Tucking her hands away into deep pockets, she began to lead the way back towards more habitable parts of the Citadel. "Why don't you tell me about that snake you said you encountered... "
It was exhausting to keep the spirits up. But she kept trying, and perhaps in time it would get easier. As long as Amun was there, it gave her a reason to keep going. For now, it was enough.
