Draugr is by me!
The slightness of Odessa's form made her pregnancy rather apparent, but Draugr was not certain whether it was acceptable or not to comment on such things. It was a part of etiquette she did not yet fully understand. While she'd been around pregnant women before, it was never in such a private setting, and she'd been spared the inner conflict as to whether compliments were appropriate or not. Draugr still hadn't concluded whether she ought to say something when Odessa spoke again.
Just walking, I suppose, the wolfdog said, deciding Odessa might usher her along if she said she had been headed to a friend's house. In truth, Draugr was glad for any company, and Odessa was already here. You're tired? she asked, taking a hesitant step toward the seated woman. You look lovely, at least. Even if the gray-hued woman was exhausted, her physical presence seemed to be bright and all aglow. This was one indirect way to raise the subject, and perhaps her reaction would allow Draugr further knowledge of how she was supposed to approach the subject of pregnancy.
