Fiona couldn’t help but sigh slightly at the fact she forgot about her potato cakes, with apple sauce and sour cream. It was a bit embarrassing to be honest but talking to people within Echo Black, was important too. Always better to get to know them than staying in her back of her mind pitying herself about her mother Anna. This made her smile slightly because she did hear Ludwig basically say something about intuition failing him. She decided to take the picture of [url=https://i.pinimg.com/564x/0f/e8/33/0fe83384371ff7e4036c4c18033ad542.jpg]her mother Anna[/url] out directly and showed it to Ludwig. [color=B0E0E6]”T-This is my mother Anna’s picture… Wish she was much more happier than she was. Always protecting me from my father’s torment...”[/color] Fiona said, with a frustrated look on her face about the sadness in her heart. It is the one reason why she wants to protect and free the people she cares about from that man.

Fiona jumped a bit when she heard some choice words from Diana under her breath, which kinda freaked her out. It was one thing but she has never really heard her say these things so vehemently and hatred in her voice. However, Diana does have no love for Richard nor whatever plans he has in the future. She couldn’t really tell how much Anna and Diana liked each other, which is probably the true reason why Anna is so sad. [color=B0E0E6][i]”D-Diana can you not scare me like that please? Its a bit much to say all those things...”[/i][/color] Fiona said under her breath towards Diana. One thing she’s for sure, is don’t piss off Diana, she usually puts her husband Luke on the couch if he does anything stupid.

However, what Ludwig specifically said afterwards struck a cord with her, which shows there’s some people stronger than her. It is the only reason why she wants to become strong enough to actually free her mother, her half-sister and Diana’s Sister from the torments of Richard. [color=B0E0E6]”I-I thank you for your feelings Ludwig. It’s always a tough time for me… to deal with the fact my mother is in the Lion’s Den of Evil so to speak.”[/color] Fiona said, with a smile. The Lion’s Den of Evil is definitely a saying she heard people in Castleton said about the Donster Estate.

Fiona sighed slightly at Diana because she could tell where this is going next, with a slight look of seriously. Basically saying she’s not a little kid and can get her own stuff to eat, however, how Diana is she insists most of the time. [color=B0E0E6]”U-Uhhh, I can get my own tray Diana… but you cannot take a no for an answer… so yes, you can help me by getting my tray, Diana.”[/color] Fiona said, with a definite look of you cannot beat Diana’s motherly instincts. Better to let her do her thing before she gets on your nerves and utterly destroys your resolve of resisting against that motherly love of hers. However, what Diana does is much better and more positive reinforcement than the alternative of being demeaned her whole life. To take her mind off the positive reinforcement of Diana, which she decides to sit at the table and keep her mother’s picture out in the open to see. She notices Andrew approach and sit down at the same table, which she had a slight smile on her face. [color=B0E0E6]”H-Hi, Andrew how are you doing today?”[/color] Fiona asked curiously towards him. She did wonder where Micheal was in question, but he was probably at a different table in the Mess Hall. Her spirits were much higher with her mother’s picture out in the open than hiding, which it usually is. She always enjoys talking about her mother Anna, it gives her slightly more relief nonetheless. 

It took her a bit to specifically hear what Diana said, about her posture, which was also a bit of a noble-esque thing too. However, all she could do was sigh and didn’t really want to say anything more on that specific subject since it was people that were told to teach her about the proper noblewoman’s posture. Even though they were heavily disgusted that she was a Darscen, but they were forced by Richard to do that or else. [color=B0E0E6][i]”Ugh, why did my father help me to be a noblewoman even though he hated me as much as he did?”[/i][/color] Fiona thought to herself, with confusion on her face, it was clear as day too. Giving a Darscen nobility training, even though Darscens are mistreated everywhere including the place her father supports in the darkness, which are the imperials. Always gave her pause, in terms of what is his true plans but after that ultimatum to her when she joined Echo Black that is. It was clear as day, which scared her to no end and why she wants to become stronger. 

However, the one thing that scared her suddenly was the tray of food sitting next to her on her right and Diana saying Ta da. [color=B0E0E6]”U-Uhh, you are… Diana… why do you always say Ta Da? T-Thanks...”[/color] Fiona said, with a smile on her face. There’s always one thing to be thankful for is Diana is a bit of a strong woman since she usually can carry two things with a gentleness and caring of who needs what. She moved her picture slightly, and moved her tray in front of her. [color=B0E0E6]”Vincenzo is very good chef, he’s a genius. I thank him for this meal, its always good to thank the chef.”[/color] Fiona said with a smile.

Diana giggled slightly when she heard Fiona sigh, but it made her remind herself of specifically of the food, which Vincenzo was so diligently making. The look on her face was priceless alike shit do I always forget in getting the food and what not again. It was a bit of embarrassing to do this, however, if it wasn’t for the fact they got into an interesting conversation with Ludwig she would’ve probably been drunk of her ass and probably sleeping in her food. [color=FFB6C1][i]”Uhhh, thank god that didn’t happen I guess? Oh wait, is Victoria here right now? I know her daughter is here since I saw her earlier. I wonder where Liz is.”[/i][/color] Diana thought to herself, with a deep sigh. 

However, one specific thing caught her attention and that was the picture of what Anna looks like now. It definitely had what Anna was feeling throughout the picture, utter sadness and hopelessness. This specifically thing made her curse under her breath directly at the person who made Anna feel this way. [color=FFB6C1][i]”Bastard… Why when I get my hands on you Richard… I will bloody kill you with your own fist shoved so far up your ass that you cannot feel your legs.”[/i][/color] Diana said, under her breath. She tried not to get Fiona’s attention with what she had said, but its pretty obvious she misses Anna. Fiona looks basically like her mother when she was younger. However, when she heard Fiona speak under her breath towards her she sighed. [color=FFB6C1]”S-Sorry, Fiona, I will try not to do that again.”[/color] Diana said, with a slight nervous smile.

Diana smiled kindly towards Ludwig, when he specifically said what he said about appreciating cooperation. However, she noticed the look on Fiona’s face and giggled slightly. [color=FFB6C1]”No problem, its always good to help people out. It’s nice you know not to disallow me to insist in helping you, Fiona. Anything, I am a tough mother and I will get our trays together even though these trays aren’t the ones I have at home only for special occasions.”[/color] Diana said, with a smile. However, she saw the newcomer at the same time as Ludwig and had a big goofy smile on her face in seeing him. It was the tank commander, Andrew specifically, he did help her have a bit of a frustration on how long it would take to get here. [color=FFB6C1]”Good day to you, Andrew. Fiona, your posture is always great as always, you won’t have any problems when you grow up.”[/color] Diana said, always enjoying to put some positive reinforcement into Fiona’s life.

She decided to walk towards where Vincenzo was since they did [i]blatantly[/i] forgot the food, they asked nicely to make. [color=FFB6C1]”S-Sorry for the forgetfulness of little ole me, Vincenzo. I hope you can forgive me. As well, you do a wonderful job of cooking it makes me happy you are here at this base. Your humor is always great to hear, it makes me laugh at your way you make jokes and come up with unique things to say.”[/color] Diana said, with a smile. She picked up [i]both trays[/i] with a bit of an efficiency of carrying two things at a time, like a true mother who cooks constantly. She slowly walks towards the table where Fiona was sitting at and gently places the tray with Fiona’s name on it next to her, not to cover up Anna’s Picture specifically. [color=FFB6C1]”Ta Da, Fiona, I am a bit of a genius carrier of things.”[/color] Diana said, finally able to carry her tray with both hands a bit easier and sitting right next to Fiona on her left side. She giggles at what Fiona said and knows that Vincenzo is very good at what he does. However, she started to eat her food since she is still a child at heart, even though she sees anyone who’s around her daughter’s age as still children, that need to be protected.
