[ She can tell. Rose hasn't seen Vanyel so sullen since... Well, since they first got to Xistentia. She remembers how difficult it had been for him at first to be away from his family. His loved ones. It hurts her to think that this is making him just as unhappy as he was then. That maybe she's making him as unhappy as he was then. ]

On our own time, [ she echoes. Rose isn't sure how soon or far away that might be. Personally, she'd be content not to think about it for a while... She doubts it will be so easy though. Marriage had been on both their minds before this. It'll only make sense that it'll stay on their minds even after Panultima. ]

[ A little bit of self-deprication to help lighten the mood, maybe. ]
