This whole affair was nothing short of incredibly frustrating. First he'd been stuck, waiting for the actual rescue mission to go through, pacing and cursing the fact that he wasn't there, and mentally threatening the direst of fates to whomever harmed Adalia, no matter that they were on the other side of the planet. It was (naturally) compounded by the damnable admission she'd made over the crystals. What was that about? Why would she do that to him?

Was it some sort of ploy? He'd been confused and angry and worried (an emotion he is not used to feeling for someone else's plight) for weeks and now that she had come back, she didn't seem to want to say anything about it. It was almost as if she'd been avoiding him and he'd decided to cut to the quick and corner her in the room they share. He had tried to plan for it, making sure she'll actually be there, without a chance to escape on the excuse of some errand. He ducked his frame through the door and paused in the entryway before he shut it behind him to give them some privacy.

"Adalia," he started, "It's been a week. How are you?"

Not something he usually asked other people.
