It might be the first time in her life has has a list of things to be grateful for. Vax, while not by her side, is living a life that's sure to bring him joy--just as she is, right here with Percy. Her thumb caresses his hand idly at the thought. Vax has something that is only his, and she has something that is solely hers. And they fought hard as hell to make it so.
"Everything else... such as yourself?" She asks with a knowing smile. The moment his heart beat she's sure he knew what he wanted for Whitestone and how to get there. "That's just as important, I hope you know."
Which might be a little hypocritical of herself to say when she hasn't exactly sat down and thought about what she wants for herself, either. Simply having Percy's love is enough. Anything more seems like a fantasy. Not asking too much--a part of her feels this is well-deserved for the both of them. A home. A life together. Peace.
