(Ok.  Here's a bonus: Tirush will be done very soon.)

"Rep, I..." Thomas shifts uneasily. "I...I'm not sure what to tell you.  You know I'll be there for you the same way you've always been there for my family and I,  but Im not so sure how.  I can probably help in a supportive role, but..."

As Thomas hesitates, the sound of heavy footfalls can be heard. Tirush steps into the room, unfolding into it, her wings unfurling to a comfortable size. She sees Thomas and Regina and beams, showing her sharp canines.

"Hello, my loves." She walks up and nuzzles Regina, who is closest.

"Opo!  Catch me!" Partha runs in and, before he can say anything, leaps onto Thomas' lap and, judging by the look on his face, onto his delicates. They both tumble over the side of the chair together.

Tirush stands and sees Rep, her smile fading only a little, out of respect.

[I greet you, O king, son of the Great Fire,] she says, moving to the old speech, touching the warpaint-mark on her face. [Welcome to our home. Welcome, welcome to you, a hundred times. What brings you here? Will you take meat with us today?]
