She could tell that Artorias didn't really approve of the idea of her being with Kane, but she truly wondered if he'd ever he content with her being with anyone else. It was really all she could ask of him when he agreed that she deserved to be happy. That's all she really wanted for now and hopefully one day Artorias would come around to liking Kane as well. A sad smile pulled at her lips as he nuzzled her cheek and brushed the tears from her eyes, her ears flicking back as he mentioned how Resin would have wanted her to be happy as well. She knew that was true, not matter how much guilt she wrestled with over it. Kane did truly make her happy and she felt like she had found herself again with him, she just hadn't expected to find that love and happiness again so soon. Her eyes met his again and she smiled a more genuine smile at his bit of a threat, chuckling softly. "I promise he does," she assured him in return. At this point in her lift she wasn't willing to just be with someone for the sake of being with someone. She only wanted this for herself because of how Kane made her feel and how much he looked out for her.
As Artorias brought the conversation back to him leaving for the Armada's training and back to Sirius and his madness, her smile faded, but with a serious expression on her face she forced herself to give him a small nod. She certainly appreciated the promise to have Corbin come to her if anything happened and was silently thankful for the Raven that had taken Artorias under his wing when he was a pup - literally. "I know you'll be careful, I just worry," she told him with a sigh. "But... I understand wanting to protect Briar. I understand you wanting to help Sirius." Even if Sirius had wronged her and finally pushed her to her breaking point, the Warlord was still a mentor for Artorias and she couldn't fault him for wanting to help him. She still wasn't happy about him going, but she'd have to let him do it. He was so incredibly headstrong and noble - things she loved about him, but drove her crazy as well.
"I guess things are going well with Briar, huh?" she questioned after a moment, a small smile pulling at the corners of her lips. She had called it from the very beginning, teasing him about the crush the two had, but it warmed her heart to know the two of them were still as close as ever. If one good thing could come from all of this it was that the two love birds were getting pulled closer together.
