Erin nods softly. She drains half her whiskey in one go before setting the glass back down; she makes no move to get up. "It's my genuine pleasure to meet you, Daisy," she murmurs. "Even with all this going down. Even here, with the ship listing and torn, alone among strangers, it's nice to meet someone who understands a little. Thank you, for that."
She tilts her head up, 'looking' at the face Daisy is wearing, and folds her arms over each other on the table. "I came when you called. Now I'll ask my favor in turn. Think about what it is you want. Really, honestly think about it. I hear anger in your voice but I don't hear a lot of conviction. I genuinely hope your partner can be returned to you, but once she is, what then? She, too, is not sovereign. Any more than you are. Any more than I am, be I ever so mighty. There's no escape from the abundant world. Its generosity ensnares us all. I hope the next time we talk you have an idea about your future here, in the garden we share."
