Council meetings are public and written summaries of what is discussed and what choices have been made are available to any mage that wants to know. Spread word that if mages have any concerns of any sort, they can bring it to us and we will do what we can for them with all due consideration.
Specifying Harrowings in particular is asking for trouble. We've only just begun to settle, we do not need to whip everyone into a frenzy.
We are sorting out how to make ourselves better available and more visible to those that have need of us. Madame Le Fer has suggested a uniform. That was...an interesting hour's worth of discussion.
[ Adelaide sighs and slumps back, pinching the bridge of her nose. ]
Aside from a migraine? Well enough. How are you, Sam?
[There's a short 'hm' huffed in confirming the first question.]
It 'felt' like he needed and wanted the space so I've been making an effort to giving him that. But we're going on a mission soon... Guess I'm not sure on what to do in this case.
Chat échaudé craint l’eau froide, he has had less than positive experiences enough in the past but you have been more than supportive and understanding. Talk to him.
[He had not been expecting that and it's clear by the shuffling on his end that Sam isn't sure what to make of being told 'men' in such a tone, followed up by Adelaide's native language.]
Perhaps you should use smaller words next time. Fears like that tend to make even the simplest gesture seem complicated. You are doing well, Sam. You are trying to be mindful of what Krem wants but, Moumou, it does not hurt to reach out first. Space has been had.

I'll certainly spread the word about seeking the Council for concerns.
[If he couldn't specify a concern for people to speak up about it was a bit of a mute point to go around talking to everyone.]
With all things considered, how are you doing?

There's a sigh from his end, followed by a shuffling of papers as he considers the question.]
Alright, I suppose. I've been keeping busy.
...
I'm at a bit of odds at what to do about Krem. We haven't... talked since.
no subject
[ That is. Well it is a difficult thing to wrap one's head around. ]
Is there a particular reason why not?

Just... talk, huh?
What was that at the beginning?

[ She sighs. ]
The scalded cat fears cold water. Roughly...once bitten, twice shy.
no subject
I thought I... had made it clear how I felt.
[Another sigh, another pause.]
I just... I'm just worried that I'm fucking this up some how.
I really like him, Adelaide.

And he's still getting used to that nickname; Moumou.]
I will keep that in mind.
Thanks. For listening.
no subject
[ That he has not is something of a surprise. ]
I am here for you whenever you need me.
no subject
Thanks, again. That really means a lot. Truly.
