She glanced at Tomhas. "Are you alright, too?" "Yeah." He nodded quickly. "I'm fine. It was just a long journey."
"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

“What?” She looked at him in concern. Then realized what she was doing and shoved her hands back in her pockets. “Sorry.”

Ky nodded. “Sorry… I… didn’t realize I was... Anxious hands.”
(Fun fact I once did this and started bleeding in the middle of a presentation because I clawed my hand from the nerves lol thankfully the audience was too far away to notice)

"I know." He nodded. "Gaius used to scratch his arms when he was a kid. It's not good."

"It's not about being better, it's about taking care of yourself." Anneke approached her. "Things will work out in the end, okay?"

“Yes’m— okay. Sorry.” She glanced over at her mother, blushing slightly. She desperately wanted to lean in for a hug but resisted the urge.

(Soooo idk how it happened but I just searched through my settings and my cellular data got turned off?? Idk I’m just relieved it’s back now. I’m too young to survive a whole day without my phone haha)
Ky nodded, throat tight. “Things will get better once the gods are awake. I will it.”
