Sabine hesitated and looked around the floor. She had not thought deeply about what her ideal partner would look like, but it didn't take long for her to warm up to the speculation. She held onto her elbow and began quietly. "It would be nice to do alchemy with someone like that. Someone to help me, and I could help them." The corner of Sabine's mouth twitched. "Hair I can run my fingers through. Soft hair. And gentle, quiet. Someone who holds me and makes me feel warm and happy."

The words above felt nice to describe, but Sabine realised that she was not being especially specific. Sabine squinted her eyes and smiled. She could have some shallow fun if she let herself. "I think humans are attractive, but elves are also nice. They look...foreign. I do not dislike Argonians, but they have strange eyes. And seeing Kaleeth and Janius kiss always looks awkward." Sabine glanced to Meesei with a look asking for forgiveness before she continued. "I have seen many Khajiit and there are many kind and attractive ones. But...their faces are too strange."

Sabine's humility reappeared at that moment as her cheeks went slightly red. "I think I prefer men. I have never felt that way towards a woman before, not like you have said." Sabine looked to Meesei again. "Is that normal?"

Whatever Meesei's answer was, Sabine's next question was in her mind before she finished. "What about you?" Sabine grinned. "What are you looking for?"

Ahnasha's response was logically reassuring, though it appeared that Calia had become so worked up that her shoulders refused to relax themselves.

"I have no doubt that this is already your mindset, Ahnasha," Calia responded. "But I shall remind you all the same. You stand between three great challenges; daedric dealings, mastering conjuration to extend your life, and motherhood. Your appreciation for such challenges is largely irrelevant. There will come a time where one or two of those challenges may have to be compromised for another. I trust that your priority will be to your son."

Calia began blinking rapidly and angled her head so she could brush aside a stray lock of hair on her tightly styled head. She took another quick breath before speaking in her previous courteous tone. "You will have to forgive my shortness, you have indeed shared many confronting details. I can see that you have been accounting for them as necessary, so perhaps we should try to move past such matters for now." Calia angled her chin up and wore a small smile. "Do you have any questions about myself or the rest of us Avaruls?"
