[Joseph's eyebrows shoot right up.]

A queen? Why didn't you say something sooner?

[moonofmylife]

Why should I have? It is not as if I demand special treatment from you or anyone else.

[She could but she knew that it wouldn't be right. There were kings and queens all over the fleet. Alistair and Robb; Riona was a noble woman. They did not demand things that she was aware of. The only thing she pushed for was not having to wear her awful fleet issued clothing and sometimes she enjoyed hiding in the Communications office to get some peace and quiet.]

[nextlineis]

[Even if she did demand, it's not like she'd get it. It's good that she's got the common sense for something like that. But even that aside,]

Yeah, but I mean. It's kinda important where you're from, right?

[moonofmylife]

It is, yes. My people need me but I cannot return to them.

[Which does make her a bit sad, but everyone aboard the Caprine has been welcoming and she feels grateful for that.]

[nextlineis]

[Oh. He definitely did not intend to make her feel sad. Joseph is quiet for a couple of seconds before he speaks again.]

If it makes you feel any better, from what I hear, time doesn't really move while we're here. Back home, I mean.

[moonofmylife]

That does make me feel better.

[She falls quiet herself, for just a moment.]

I want the Caprine to feel as much home to me as Mereen had.

[She feels as if she needs to clarify that a bit. She isn't completely unhappy, but she does miss home. She misses her dragons. She misses Misandei and her handmaidens who took such care with her. She did not have that here to ground her. Only herself and whomever she chose to rely upon. So far it had been no one.]

[nextlineis]

[She might be a queen, but Joseph sees someone who's just maybe a little homesick, and that's a feeling he can definitely relate to. He's grateful to have familiar faces from home here. He knows how lucky he is. But he still misses his grandmother and Speedwagon from time to time. Nothing in this world can exactly stop that.]

Well, if there's anything I can do to help you with that, let me know, yeah? It takes a lot of getting used to around here, but you can get used to it. And the crew around here, [Joseph says, gesturing a little with his hand,] they're a good one. We try to look out for each other and help if someone needs it.
