Brynja's laughter was loud and filled with catty glee. It was so nice to have someone to speak with about the priestess lifestyle with - it would not do well to gossip with someone outside of the tightly-kept circle. Brynja felt that she could trust Nadja to keep this idle banter to herself, and it felt... nice.
Very nice.
There were so few lions that Brynja felt that she could trust. Many of them knew her family and respected her because of it, but none were considered friends.
"Do not apologize, Nadja, please. It has been nice to sit and speak with you. I am glad we seem to share certain," she gave a wry smile, "opinions, hmm?"

Nadja was delighted to be enjoying some snarkiness with another person in her profession about other people. Just as Brynja trusted Nadja to be discreet, Nadja had the same trust in Brynja. Besides, if a person wanted to ruin Nadja's life, they wouldn't do it by repeating gossip. They'd just bring to the attention of the lawspeakers the fact that she was poisoning her mother.
"It's been a treat. Next time I'll ask you to meet somewhere that doesn't smell so strongly. I didn't think of it when I asked you here today. I'm...used to it."
She wasn't ashamed of it, but it had occurred to her that Brynja was being extremely good to ignore the fact that the whole place smelled of ammonia and bleach at the moment. It didn't smell like piss - thank goodness - as it might have done a week before, but it still wasn't a pleasant fragrance.

Brynja shrugged her shoulder. In truth the smell was more than slightly overwhelming, but she didn't find it offensive. If anything, Brynja admired Nadja for her practices. It wasn't a task that Brynja would want to handle herself, but it was something that came in rather handy in different ways.
"It is nothing. In fact, it is rather fascinating. You will have to show me your techniques and methods another time. I must admit to being curious," Brynja gave Nadja a toothy grin.
"And do not worry over your tests. I believe you are worthy to call yourself a Priestess within the pride - and if anyone thinks to deny you as such, well." She gave a haughty sniff.
"We have ways of changing their minds."
