[Vex makes a sound of understanding. She knows something about it, in part because of her time as a Gurahl.]

I can hardly blame her. With everything that's happening...

Gods, we all deserve a break.

I'll try to keep giving her a place she can feel safe.

[ragedagainst]

All I can ask is that you're as patient with her as y'can be, love. It's no small thing, what Jordana goes through.

[whatsinfrontofyou]

At least for the time being, patience is easy to give. It might be one of the few things I can give.

[ragedagainst]

Y'give more than you know by just givin' her the time to sort herself out.

[whatsinfrontofyou]

The gods know she beats herself up enough for asking.

Sorry to bring this to you, but it feels like things are getting too big for just me.

[ragedagainst]

No--

Y'did the right thing, love. I know it's shit havin' to take this outside of her confidences. It's weird for me too, seein' her in this state. When I knew her best, I was still a kid, I never realised she suffered like this.

It's a common thing with members of my family [ Tribe ]. We're more prone to it than most. I hate to see Jordana goin' through it alone.

[It's a sign of the seriousness that Vex doesn't try to make some kind of a quip or sarcastic remark to avoid the seriousness of the topic.

Her normal defenses feel too flippant now.]

I wish there was more I could do—that we could do. If this was something getting drunk and picking a bar fight could fix, I'd already be on the other side of it.

[But it's not that easy, is it?]

Thank you for listening, and being such a good friend to her.
