"Do you need anything else? We were thinking we should probably go check on the kids - actually, if you're up for it, you could check on the kids, since you can do it while giving them space..."

"I can check on them. Um, I don't have very good facial expression reading so all I'll really be able to tell is where they are."

"Do you want to borrow our eyes? I'm glad the other sense can compensate but it sounds - I can't imagine not being able to see farther than a few hundred yards, or without enough fidelity for facial expressions..."

"You can do that? - I think I have the fidelity for facial expressions just not the practice."

"Yes, osanwë can share senses - sight better than sound, because most people triangulate off sound and find it fairly disorienting -" she attempts to send her how to see through someone else's eyes -

...are Lírnith's available because Annie wants to look at Rirosseth.

Sure, she'll let Annie look through her eyes.

oh no she's pretty (of course she's pretty) (the scars are heartbreaking but she's so pretty) oh no

"- wow, you have way better vision than I ever did."

"Elves have much more acute senses than humans, yeah. But our environments not being exceptionally pretty bothers us, so it's a mixed blessing."

"That does sound like a hassle."

"I wish you'd arrived in time to see a real Elven city."

"I don't have much aesthetics through the weird sense and don't know if that's practice or just not something it has. I guess I could've looked at it with help."

They both shudder. Here is the room where they left the traumatized girls. They do not go in.

And where are the traumatized girls?

They appear to be searching the kitchen for food things and hiding them.

"...hiding food around."

"Well, I think we should let them, if it makes them feel safer - we're not going to run out of food -"

Nod.

"Do they have their own rooms -"

"Yeah. I've been singing them to sleep - I'll stop if they want, but they haven't given any indication either way - perhaps you can invent a hand signal for that, too..."

"- I know some actual sign languages."

"That would probably be more applicable than Dwarven military communication signalling."

"Yeah. Should I teach you first or them?"

"I don't want to interrupt them right now."

"Okay. Uh, in Norden Sign 'go away' would be -" She gestures. "And 'stay close' would be -" Gesture.
