Jerica glanced at him in surprise but then away quickly, recovering. No one ever said she was good at saying things. “…I know Ky is very fond of this place.” That was the closest she could bring herself to compliment his belongings.

Jerica nodded, not quite looking over at him. “… she’ll need it,” she agreed softly.

He glanced at her, brow furrowed. "She will," he agreed tentatively. "And she does. She's still adjusting, I think. To all this. And the gods waking isn't making it easier."

Jerica glanced at him, then away, furrowing her brow and burying her hands even deeper into her pockets. “It’ll calm down once they’re awake n shi-stuff.”

Jerica nodded. “It will. Just give us a few months to get it all sorted. Then you can all come back. Yknow.”
