"I'll get you some mead, and a water, just incase."

*He promised, and continued to play with her hair a little, relaxing.*

"If you want to go, I think you should go. I just... Don't know if I am comfortable fighting in another country, especially one that's... As far as it is. It is quite the trip. But... If you do really want to go, I'll certainly follow you there, and make sure you arrive safely, at the very least. I don't know if I'll want to stick around afterwards but... Least making sure you arrive there safely would do my heart a lot of good. I'd be worried about you traveling through Mentia or Kadho given their... Little wars going on."

*He felt himself just absolutely start to babble, and wasn't sure if he could even stop himself. And he wasn't even sure how she would react to his thoughts thus far, just that he was going to be as supportive as he felt like he could manage for her. He wanted to be the best future husband he could be, and felt like this was a good start. He just... Hoped she understood his line of thinking.*

*Eventually, he began to rise to his feet.*

"I should uh... Get the food, before we get too hungry though."
Andrew
"You do know Siui is at war too?"

*Katherine sat up so she wouldn't be dropped onto the floor by Alde standing, stretching and yawning, then standing up and grabbing his hand.*

"Hey, Alde."

*She leaned in for a small kiss, their lips touching briefly, but more than just a small peck.*

"Thank you. For checking up on me."
Mike
"Well, yeah I... I know it is at war, with Mentia, and Ie if I recall? But... I..."

*He felt pretty awful with the response, though seeing her grab his hand, lean in, and plant the kiss reassured him he was least on the right tracks. And that meant a lot in the moment. His smile returning even if a bit weaker than before he just stood there a moment, lovingly admiring Katherine, with his smile slowly growing back to its full size. Momentarily, he set an arm around her, lovingly as he enjoyed the addition to their moment.*

"Yeah, don't mention it. It was good to talk like this."

*He walked towards the door, glancing back at her, feeling better than the immediate moments prior.*

"I... I do genuinely mean it when I say I'll give it some real thought."

*He promised again, before opening the door to step through it, to go get their food.*

"Before I go get the food, anything you want to add or?"
Andrew
"With everyone, to be honest. Kadho, the Southern League, and Mentia."

*Katherine followed Alde to the door, stopping at the entrance.*

"Nothing more. Just know that you'll have a little present waiting for you after dinner."

*A smirk was on her face as she leaned against a doorframe.*
