*flashes Celly an appreciative smile as she gets up* All right. Thank you. *smiles at Melba and Isengar as they pass* I'll be down in a bit.
*turns back to Bingo, picking up on their conversation where they left off, squeezing his hand gratefully for reminding her that her own friendship was valuable as well*
*interprets his questioning look at her mention of feeling unwell as the thought she might be pregnant again* Oh, Valar no. *shakes her head and laughs, with the slightest edge of sorrow to her voice* No.
*recovers herself* But yes. It is nice to have a bit of freedom from parental duties, if only for a short while. Although I do miss her terribly.
*pauses for a moment to consider his question* It feels... strange. Like I haven't quite been able to get a handle on how I fit in anymore. Does that sound odd? *smiles* Or is that the usual experience of someone who's been away from home for an extended period of time?
