[ The birds haven't seemed to bother regathering, and she takes a moment to look through the variety she's collected with his help. It's going a bit better, so she decides to chance it for a cluster of a few more. She takes the opportunity to consider his response, and there's only one thing she can think of. ]

There isn't much I wouldn't do to see my daughter happy, no matter where that is.

[ She may not have been mother of the year, ever, but she knows what she would do for Bree. ]

It does make me glad to know others are happy when they otherwise couldn't have been. I'm glad this is another chance for people who need it.

[ Eddie comes to mind, her heart giving a small, sad tug. She hopes he can find and hold onto happiness here, as long as possible. ]

Now, on a happier note, it's nice to be able to mingle with other factions and meet new people. For as awkward as the birds tried to make it, I'm glad we've met.

[ She's spent her entire life meeting new people, a nomadic lifestyle leading to an appreciation for new faces and experiences. Abraxas has been a boon for that, and something she's very much enjoyed. ]
