Getting It Over With - Video - OTA (CW: Death mentions)

[najaran]

[Najaran sighed and with Gremlin's help figured out how to send a video message. Machines were still a little confusing to her.]

[A deep breath then she began speaking to where Gremlin's small scaly finger came into frame to point her to.]

"Leia and I already talked about it. But I figure a lot of you are gonna wanna let me know how upset you are that I didn't let the train evacuate me at the end of the last mission. That I tried to stand and fight those things. That I refused to run away again. Anyway, I'm probably going to be hungry a lot this month, so if you're going to yell at me, I'd rather just let everyone yell at me today and just get it over with, okay?"

[She hesitated, unsure, then shrugged.] "So yeah. I'll be in the Garden car if you want to come yell at me in person. Just please be careful not to hurt Woodfolk, they had nothing to do with it."

[Again that scaled hand came onto the screen to point out what she was supposed to do next.]

About an hour later Nell showed up at the garden car with a basket of cookies, some savory biscuits, and a container of hot chocolate. "Thought you might kind of could use some of this," she said gently. "And your friends too."

It's not a surprise to find Esteban already in the Stone Garden carriage, as he loves spending his free time in there. The poi in his hands stop whirling about when he sees Najaran approaching though, grinning at her wide and bright as he welcomes his friend.

"Oh, hello!" There's a brief glance as he makes sure that Najaran hasn't gotten hurt overall, but Esteban knows that by now, there's probably a healer or two that would have checked on her. "Glad t' see you out an' about! Wanna join me?" he offers cheerfully, stretching a hand out after unwrapping the poi strap from his fingers.

He's heard her message of course-- there's an ICP in here too, and he'd been lured in when he noticed it was her. He hadn't known that she'd refused to get evacuated, but then the last hours had been pretty hectic for them all. And Esteban's not here to scold her in any case-- but he would be glad to offer her an ear if she needs it.
