Maeve
She understands his distaste for the governor, knowing that there are many things coloring his opinion of Sunjata, but he's not wrong. Even as the harshness of the words settle between them, Maeve knows that he's right to say as much, causing her to sigh softly. "I know. He's struggled with separating his personal life from what he needs to do as a leader. It's catching up to him now." As much as she wishes that wasn't the case. There was nothing to be done for it. Not when Safrin has taken notice of it as well.
"I don't know, Remi. I was surprised of the choice myself." Much like the Lullaby, Maeve had her own bones to pick with that particular ascended, prickling at the mere mention of him. "Probably that he could have his cake and eat it too." Maeve muttered, sparing a glance at Remi just as the world began to shudder.
Things calm, but only slightly. There is a buzzing in the air that slides across her skin, causing her to be on edge and it takes a concentrated amount of effort to calm herself so she might answer his question. "I believe she'll leave him be for now. She didn't seem to have any interest in bringing him back to Torchline." It's an attempt to calm him further, reassure him that they were safe where they were for a while longer. Not hat Maeve knew the thoughts of the goddess, but based off their conversation it didn't seem likely. "The only person I mentioned by name was Jack... Unaligned as he is, but she didn't seem interested in that idea."
Maeve pauses, licking her lips as she considers her next words, wondering for a moment if he would think it silly that she thought of herself for the role. "I told her I would help. If I was needed." A faint flush rises to her cheeks at this, eyes flicking up to Remi to gauge his reaction.

But I don't like a gold rush, gold rush
I don't like slow motion double vision in rose blush
