Happiness and contentedness were two very different things. A person could be content without truly being happy. It was probably the state that many of the stolen candidates found themselves in. Certainly Jissy herself was content; not happy. Her current pregnancy wasn't ideal, certainly, but at the same time she found herself excited to be a mother. Of course as Volfetti spoke she found herself doubting the gender of her child. Would she have a boy? Would that be such a terrible thing, to have a little boy who looked like his father? After all, Echlerov was rather handsome. "I will keep that in mind."
A gentle smile curled her lips as they returned to the task at hand and Volfetti voiced her doubts about her own abilities. Jisralna chuckled softly then watched patiently as the older woman attacked the needle she'd given her with the end of the thread before finally succeding. Of course as she got a little overly excited and the thread fell out as a result. Her smile transformed into a grin and her eyes sparkled with laughter which she made certain to keep silent. "You did well. I do have a little trick if you'd like me to show you."
Picking up a needle and thread of her own she leaned forward slightly and held the needle away from herself so that the other woman could see it better. "You make a loop around the needle with your thread." She did so then pinched it tight and slipped the needle out. "Then pinch it and slip it through the eye." She turned the needle slightly with nimble fingers and slipped the thread through the eye of the needle and pulled it through so that it had a several inch long tail. "And make sure you pull it through far enough so that it won't accidentally slip out.
"Did you want to try again?" She set down her needle and smiled encouragingly. "I am sure you will get it. It just takes a little practice."
