She rolls her eyes

Sympathetic huff!

"Piper seems pretty sane though" She concedes

Jaw-jut.

"Piper does, I guess."

"Thanks for not spindling Zane even when he asked for it" She says "I am fond of him so, appreciated. " a look "Maybe something will be prodded by my naming? Some ..memory to a treasure or whatever of great power and then I will have something else to parley for my father?"

"Well, when he gets here, he'll have to be a fledge, too."

"Who knows, he might pop up as a childling."

"I have no idea how to deal with that" She admits

"As it is, I'm worried I'll get stuck baby sitting the Eshu"

"We all are worried about being stuck babysitting."

"Maybe we can stick him with Gerd?"

"Ha. Well, seems only fair, others babysat her a lot"

"Exactly."

"Is the new Boggan okay? Zane tells me you and she talked to her before Lucia came over. Ramona? Right? Is she handling it well?"

"She seems okay. More worried about Lucia, to be honest."

"Lucia? " That catches her off guard "Lucia never causes any trouble"

"Sure, but she's... unhappy, right?"

"I hadn't noticed," Surprised "I suppose I have been preoccupied with the upcoming saining. Do you know what's wrong to make her so?"

She shakes her head. "Not quite sure."

"mm.. well, asking her outright might make her feel interogated. But I'll try to be more attentive"

"Yeah, me too."

"...I should get home." Reluctant/regretful.

"Me too , the Browns will worry..." She nods "Say hello to your folks for me."

"Yeah, can do." She reaches out a hand to... what? It hovers, uncertainly.

Nadeen takes it in hers and gives it a squeeze "Good night"

A squeeze back. "Take care."

And, somewhat confused and full of EmOtIoNs, she flees.

Nadeen is a bit surprised by...she's not sure what. Varich are cold, not so much unfeeling as above it. Yet she feels ...remorse? Fondness... and other things she can't... she has to go as well

She heads home. Her name will solve everything
