"I think I saw her, likes purple?" Gerd says

"That's her!" thersa smiles

"Purple IS her. She turned Ladybird violet last week..." She rests a hand on top of Theresa's. "Thank you, for taking such good care of Irene - and Felicity, too. I know it can be... difficult, with the shift between being enchanted and not. I wish it were easier, but the risk of being Dreamsrtuck necessitates those breaks. We'll figure out the ideal balance eventually."

Ladybird thumps her tail. The dog did not mind being violet, as she is colorblind. She does hope for a french fry.

Gerd pets Ladybird. Can't help it

"Felicity is a gem" She assures "Bright girl, and yes she wants to act all grown up sometimes, but then she relaxes and plays and she's so clever. As for the Dreamstruck thing" A nod "I understand. I'm no good to anyone in a coma. It's weird, like I'm sure I'm missing a conversation everyone else was in on while I slept, but so far I make it work. Thank you for worrying, and if I get out of balance, please let me know"

"I should bring Connor to visit"

She smiles. "Connor would be welcome."

"And we will keep you aware for as much as it is safe, Therese. I was friends with a kinain at Rivervale - Gerd, you know Sallie Mae. I see how valuable she is there, and so I know it is possible to have kinain who are part of our world."

"Sally mae?" Curious

"Oh yes. sally mae is troll blooded, " Gerd tells Theresa "She's amazing. Actually does DO it all."

"She is hearth trained, and a business woman, and a scholar, and has a romance. "Gerd goes on "She's got a lot of ambition and drive, but also can be kind. "

"She's amazing, yes. And dating a house brother."

"Why that minx, a kinain woman stealing a noble" Theresa sips her drink and adds "Like her already. "

A laugh. "She's something."

"Do you guys have a knight's heart set up here yet?" Gerd asks
