she tried not to let it show how exhausted and upset she was. Dutch always viewed herself a strong woman, but the past few events of the last couple of weeks caused her to second guess her strength. she hadn't fought Valkyrie for her freedom, and Hannibal was forced to bargain for her. she could never repay the debt she owed him now, even if he didn't see it as a debt needing to be owed. "I..." she fumbled, lowering her eyes to not meet his proud gaze. I don't matter she wanted to scream at him. throw shit at him. to let him know how badly shaken she had been but expecting no comfort from him.
her gaze found their children instead. "Godbrand and Gimli snore. loudly" but he knew that, from the time Hannibal was spending in the den. she grasped at straws trying to cover up her feelings. "Beryl was fussy earlier but calmed down enough" her only daughter was given a fond look through her weary eyes. "and I'm fine" liar her mind hissed at her. her tone even suggested she wasn't. "nobody's come to visit us but you." she'd add in, giving Hannibal the News of The Day. the Ashen folk were keeping a wide berth of the den so far.
she didn't know whether that was a good or bad sign.
