Oh-- yes, I'm dressed.

[She, however, keeps her back to Zevran as she listens. Zevran would obviously get the same privacy he had afforded her.]

Yes, well, part of me wishes that were not so right now. [She scoffs, rubbing her forehead again.] It wasn't the worst thing I've endured either. I have been left with worse things to ponder, it's true. But I am still afraid of how this could change my relationship to all three of you. [How it changed what she thought when she thought of Jenny.]

You are as you ever were. A woman beyond reproach. A warrior and Lady of means and respect. A dutiful and faithful wife to your Jenny. What happened here was a lie. That much I am quite familiar with, Madame Vastra. We were made to prostitute ourselves for the sake of the shift's narrative.

We have done nothing wrong.

It was pleasant. [She says that as though she's expecting someone to punish her for it.]

You were a passionate and dominant lover. The first male I've been with. The fact that I am not... thinking back on it with distaste gives me cause to wonder how faithful I am.

It does not make you unfaithful, Vastra. It means that perhaps, back home with your wife, you might request her to be a little more dominant. From what you have told me of your Jenny? It should not be beyond her.

Well we have always had a... system. [That's pretty much as far as she's going to go with the description.] It works well for both of us.

I have no doubt it would not be impossible for her, but we have been very happy with how things are. [She looks down at her rug and crosses her arms.] Perhaps because I never felt alone in our home. I did not need someone to pay attention to me because I felt as though I was the center of her life, and she was the center of mine.

[Perhaps it wasn't the lovemaking. Perhaps it was the feeling of being someone's center again.]

[ He has no intention of inquiring further. Such things are sacred, even here. ]

You miss her dearly, do you not? It must be difficult to be away from one you love for so long.

[eversohungry]

Yes-- which is why we have to get you back to your own home. [She turns around slowly to check Zevran's state of dress before coming completely around.] Jack and Eugene are no doubt concerned.

I...do not look forward to that, actually. I fear it may be terribly awkward.

[ Terribly? Ha! Understatement. ]

I would not call your fears unfounded. Usually I have advice for every situation, however what to say to one's spouse after having relations with their mother is not one I have ever come across. And I believe that is saying something.

I will sort something out. Somehow. You've my thanks for your support and your kindness all the same, Vastra. I shall let you know how it goes.
