Welcome to Gaia! ::

Good! Richtersveld watched in relief and in a small amount of admiration of her own work as Tanais flexed her arm and inspected the wrappings. "To think that something so major lives in almost all of us, and yet most of us don't know a thing about it." Her brows knit momentarily. "Troubling."

But it was the kind of thing there was no easy solution to. Who would believe her? She wouldn't have believed her before the events of 2016, to be honest...

Oh, something had changed about Tanais' tone. Nothing needed, alright but-- oh. Liked. Her cheeks flushed just a bit again, although she reminded herself not to be too presumptuous. Brandy and good company sounded like something was nice, as frequently as it was far out of her grasp. Perhaps, though, that had been self-enforced. She always had so much to do. She had to worry about her patients, the victims of the war, her family, her groups--

It had been a while since she had taken time to herself to hang out with someone, admittedly, especially with that warmth behind it.

Well...

"Not too busy," she chuckled quietly, taking the offered hand. "Let me just send a text to my twins to not wait up for me."
