"NO YOU MADE ME--!" She was blushing, rubbing her face. But she slowly started giggling and repeated sheepishly, "I see you pee." And dissolved into a fit of laughter.

"I see you pee," Mattathias copied. "Alright, you two," Sara said with a small chuckle. "Not at the table, please."
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
Tasia gave another giggle but nodded. "Yes ma'am."

Mattathias grinned sheepishly and let his mother serve him food.

Ky systematically began shoveling food into her mouth, focusing on counting rings in the wood of the table in an attempt to not focus on any of the things that would turn her appetite. And they were many these days.

Tomhas was eating very little, mostly pushing food around on his plate. Lyra glanced at him with a frown.

Tadaaki glanced at him and then glanced at Ky and then glanced at Gaius, wondering if anyone knew what was going on or if it was just him that was confused.

Gaius had noticed Tomhas's portion and his fidgeting. It was concerning; usually after a day Tomhas would be up and about again, or at least eating his usual amount. Viol's words must have struck him harder than he'd thought.

Ky couldn't help but feel she was partially to blame, though she didn't know why. Had she made things worse last night? Gotten Tomhas in his own head? She hoped not.
She shook the thought off and forced herself to keep eating as quickly as possible before her stomach had a chance to knot up.

"Papa." Mattathias reached past Sara to try and tug his father's sleeve. "Yes, Mattathias?" "When do we get to share our heartboxes with Tasia?"

"Yeah!" Tasia gasped, eyes locking on Gaius. "I wanna see them! Really, really, really, really, really bad!"

Gaius paused. Damn. He'd hoped they'd forget. "We can do that before I leave," he said reluctantly. "Yay!" Mattathias cheered.

"Yay!" Tasia joined in the cheer. "When are we going?"
