Summary
“I…have known nothing in my life but battle.” The words are stilted, brusque; it is her way. “All my knowledge of…children…is of constant testing, unending bloodshed. I do not know what a healthy creche looks like. I do not know what a healthy githyanki childhood looks like. That knowledge has been stolen from us. I do not—” She grits her teeth. “I dislike embarking on such an important mission with no information. Too much is at stake.”
Tearing such vulnerability from between her ribs has never come naturally. But watching the still-wet hatchling examine its own toes, watching her lover brush eggshell from its arms, against her will Lae’zel softens. They have been through too much together not to respond such. Back-to-back, as ever, there is surely no challenge so great that they cannot—
“Well, don’t look at me,” says Shadowheart. “I was raised in a cult, remember?”

Summary
Like all Selûnites, Isobel revered the night sky and the Lady of Silver's luminous guidance through the dark. Yet in this moment, she could not help but praise the sun, both for scorching the land strongly enough that beads of sweat rolled off of Aylin's brow and bare arms most enticingly, and for granting Isobel a very good excuse as to why exactly her face was so red and her breath so short. Not only that, but she was currently finding it quite difficult, perhaps even blasphemous, to direct her prayers towards the very mother of the one causing her to lose her composure.
The first time before, the first time after.
