“If you think your old bones can still handle the couch, that might be nice of you to offer,” Quilriana smiled serenely at her friend. She was a handful of months older than but he liked to gripe about getting old and she couldn’t help but tease him once in a while about it. But she also was already taking a shining to the brother and wanted to make sure he didn’t feel put out by her arrival—which only added to her teasing. “Although, if the bed is truly so large, I suppose I can share it with Geric and you can have the spare bed after all.”
Learning that Geric was learning to cook surprisingly put her at ease and released some tension Quilriana wasn’t aware she was carrying. “I would love to try his cooking and I would love his help in the kitchen if he’s eager to learn. It’s been a while since I’ve taught someone and I admit to kind of missing it.” She was excited to learn more about the little brother and wanted to make sure he didn’t feel replaced or left out with her being there or Gangleri vanishing for months at a time.
“We can go for walks when the mood strikes but I’ll be fine staying around the house. As you kept on insisting, this is a vacation and I should be resting and enjoying myself. So I’ll try my hand at doing nothing for a bit.” That sounded horrible, honestly, but she was willing to give it a try for a few days before growing restless.
