eyes can't shine unless there's something burning bright behind
She laughs again and lets out a sigh, pulling her cigarette down to let it dangle between her fingers. "Oh well, you know he'd find a reason anyway," she rolls her eyes with an amused smile, though in the back of her mind she's sure she'll be hearing about this later, whenever Sunjata does take the time to throw it back in Jack's face. She makes a mental note to not bring it up to him herself, in that case.
Sunjata's mood seems better just from that and Aurelia's almost sorry to bring up another, more serious topic. But he doesn't seem the least bit perturbed, and she nods with a smaller smile at his comment. "It's a lot better now that I'm not scared of my own abilities," she admits as an add-on.
Otherwise, she lets him talk about his experience of becoming attuned, taking a few slow drags as she listens. She finds it an interesting, peculiar little tidbit that Safrin kissed him, although it's also unsurprising. He's got that whole... edgy bad boy charm. Guess even a goddess isn't immune to that. "Yeah, yeah, everybody wants to kiss Sunjata," Aurelia rolls her eyes before she mulls over what he's said more earnestly. "Did it hurt? Not the kiss, obviously," she smirks at him briefly, poking fun, "but... shifting. Does it hurt? Do you... lose.. yourself a little? When you become that animal?" It's probably her only major concern with it, if she's honest. Giving in to those animalistic urges could prove... unpredictable, risky.
