Colibri’s out burst was not unexpected, but Cer jumped a tad at the harshness of her voice all the same. Perhaps knowing how manipulative Haku could be, whether he knew it or not, she had not expect Colibri to really throw him out. Cercelee probably wouldn’t have thrown him out, but it was clear that Colibri knew something that Cercelee didn’t. Haku however, seemed unphased by this all, offering only a slight as his departing words, and a nod to herself. Politely, and as if nothing out of the ordinary had just transpired during their brief little meeting, the rosea returned the nod of Haku.
Now that the male was gone, it was just the two of them again. Honestly, aside from a few passing words here or there, Colibri and Cer hadn’t sat alone together since before they had formed Dahlia de Mai. The incessant need to be accepted and to have her companion nearby had seemingly died off when Colibri had asked Cer to take the co-rank of rosea. It was at that moment Cer let go the image of a mother figure she had held Colibri up to, because now they were just equals, leading and being led together. Turning to Colibri, the navy eyes looked at the older female questioningly. Cer didn’t need to speak, the silence was awkward enough and certainly Colibri knew that Cercelee was left in the dark. Still, if she didn’t speak, Colibri could just wander off, not explain, and Cercelee believed it was best if she was clued in. ”What’s this all about?”
