The kiss Théadan managed to sit up to give her was sweet and she was happy to see him able to do it, but more than anything Navia was glad to hear Théadan was not upset she had sold the jewel. Briefly she had worried he would be, but he was reasonable and understood their need to pay their way to Khlurios. It was that reasoning that allowed her to hope he would not be upset with what she was to propose next. It was sweet of him to want to replace the jewelry, but Navia shrugged slightly. The truth of it was that she had more jewels similar in style and that particular one had meant little to her until it had become the only Khluri item she owned. He could buy her whatever gifts he wanted though, and Navia hoped Théadan would not only understand when her wealth also became his but he would not feel awkward for it.<br/><br/>She would have told him as much if he hadn’t reached for the strawberries. She wanted to see what he thought of the little surprise and a pleased smile rapidly formed on Navia’s lips. Théadan offered a strawberry up to her before she could reply however, and after the moment of surprise faded, she was left grinning. She took a bite, then chuckled when some of the juice trickled down her lip. Fingers quick to brush the juice from her lips, Navia chewed the sweet berry before reaching for another. “I have a bit of a sweet tooth,” she admitted, purposely choosing a smaller strawberry while she said it, “And as soon as I passed them in the market, I knew we needed them. I’ve been wanting something sweet for days now.” With Théadan’s health improving, so had her appetite.<br/><br/>Navia pulled the leafy end of the strawberry off and returned it to the bag so she could pop the entire small berry into her mouth. Her hand reemerged from the bag with a strawberry that was a healthy intermediate between small and large. “We’re still going to need some supplies before we leave here,” she pointed out while bringing the strawberry up to his lips, just as he had done for her. “The ship will probably become hotter the closer we reach Khlurios and we don’t want to arrive in Balaja in winter gear. We’d be far too overheated too quickly. So I think we should probably buy some clothing that we can wear once it warms up. We might also want to buy food for Wyndagar.”<br/><br/>They would definitely need more money then, and Navia glanced over at her bag with a small frown, “I would also like to help Ragná and Ivarn rebuild their life together, Théadan. I think I should take the emerald you gave me in Nygaard and sell it.” She hated saying it, did not want to give up something Théadan had so thoughtfully given her, especially when he had done so not knowing if they could be together. Not only that, the beautifully flawed stone reminded her of him. Nose scrunching with her distaste of selling the emerald, Navia shrugged and looked back to Théadan. “I don’t really want to,” she admitted quietly, “But a Khluri trader will pay a lot for it. We can get all the supplies we need, give Silva money for her parents, and be left over with a little for when we reach Khlurios.”
