"Maybe I will ask Flora about apple trees," she whispers. The thought of moving isn't terribly ideal but she knows she'll feel better once she moves and has an apple (or ten).
"That was my intention," she murmurs as she takes to following Elizabeth. After a few steps, she does feel less lethargic, less tempted to lie down and sleep for ages. For good measure, "I do promise to find him," she states. She isn't sure if she's dreading or happy about seeing him. Worse, she has no idea what his reaction will be. Then again she isn't quite sure what her reaction is. Oh dear.

She forced herself to walk a bit slow so she wasn't rushing Aurora, even though she wanted to run and find Jack and bat at his ears for this, but she had to remind herself that Aurora didn't see Jack the same way she saw him.
"Aurora, I know I seem I am pushing, but I do honestly know what you are going through. After I found out I was pregnant with Hector's first brood of kits, I didn't know what to think or feel. Happy that I would bring in a new generation of pirates? Angry because it was Hector that got me pregnant? Scared that he wouldn't want them or just outright reject us all? Where could I find the nearest sweet root?" She explained.
"But one thing I will tell you this Aurora, no matter what Jack says or does, you are not alone. You have your fairies and Rose. And you have me as well. We will all be here for you." she said with a gentle, encouraging smile.

She doesn't comment on the idea of knowing how she feels. All that matters is that Elizabeth means well, even if her words are a little hard to take right now. She nods along. "I know and I appreciate all of you," she admits. It's much more her friend's benefit than her own. She knows, truly, that she has many to turn to and lean on and trust.
She would rather not think, though. "Everything will be all right," she says instead. She doesn't quite know if it's true but she can hope. And maybe it'll reassure Elizabeth.
And then because it is impossible not to, her mind turns to Jack. She has to find him. Soon.
