The moment she reached for Achilleas’ hand under the table, Ria felt herself relax a little as she sat there silently; happy to just listen to the others. She was grateful that he had joined them and she was also upset with herself for being apparently unable to handle even such a simple and small social gathering. Yet another thing to add to her seemingly endless list of things to work on.

Achilleas squeezed Ria’s hand in encouragement as he quirked his head in confusion at Octavia. “I certainly don’t mean to pry but you sound… dissatisfied. Are you not staying with us by choice? Is the Captain somehow blackmailing you to remain aboard?” His imagination was running a bit amuck.

Octavia laughed nervously shaking her head, “Oh no not like that actually that was my choice the one choice I actually got to make, I just recently become joined and I was lied to, it was only meant to be temporary but somehow there was a delay in the host’s arrival and now I am joined for good, till death do us part” She rolled her eyes, “Sorry I’m being a bit dramatic, or so Raain thinks.”

“Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.” Achilleas replied as his emotions shifted somberly. “I can only imagine the turmoil that comes from a permanent joining having been done under dishonest circumstances. I don’t think it’s dramatic at all to have a bit of a freak out over that. I’d evaluate it as a normal part of the coping process honestly.”

Even though she felt a little more at ease with Achilleas now at her side and holding her hand, Ria still didn’t really know what to say. So she remained silent while listening closely to the others.
