"That's good. But I think we should aim for you to be in better condition than 'not dead' when you go to your meeting."

"I was going to pretend not to speak Kelish so the translator could do everything but apparently he has permanent Tongues. Like the - like my brother did."

" - bummer. I guess we'll just have to rehearse a bunch."

Permalink

"Mmhm."

"We have time."

She goes for whichever part of his meal he looks least interested in.

And eventually Fazil comes back with some history and some documents for it. 

Permalink

"Did you take a nap?"

Permalink

"No, your majesty."

Permalink

She hands her husband a paper.

Thank you very much.

Permalink

Her husband hands the paper over. Waits a minute. 

 

"You going to answer her?"

Permalink

"If you'd like, your majesty."

Permalink

"No, I just didn't want to send you off if you had something to say. Dismissed."

Fazil has written Korva a couple of pages of explanation of the political situation with Qadira and what it would be nice for Hagan to do at the dinner party, ordered by how important it is, and of the tax policies. A ring of comprehend languages is included.

Permalink

She puts the ring on and leafs through stuff.

"Do you want me to read through these now, or did you have more stuff you wanted to talk about?"

Permalink

"I guess read them."

Permalink

"Okay. Try to eat stuff."

She's not really at the top of her game, but she can try really hard to read and understand these documents. Hopefully she can make it through before her brain melts of either boredom or anxiety. 

 

"D'you want me to try explaining stuff to you? Or do something else?"

Permalink

"Don't wanna talk about it right now."

Permalink

"Okay.

"D'you know what else you want to talk about?"

Permalink

"I dunno that I want to talk about anything else. 'm not mad at you. Just tired."

Permalink

"Makes sense. M'tired too.

"Do you - want me to stay here?"

Permalink

Shrug.

Permalink

Sigh.

"Brain hurts. Not immediately sure how to fix it. If you want I might - leave the documents with you and go try to take a break and then bring you lunch in a couple hours."

Permalink

"Mmhmm. Dismissed."

Permalink

She still kinda hates that - way of navigating leaving - but it's better than "get out of here".

She heads back to her room.
