The alpha leaned forward in surprise and concern as Jace seemed to choke on her tea, coughing and hacking as though the liquid had gone down the wrong pipe. She hadn't known that the news would be that surprising, or she wouldn't have told her while she was drinking the tea... just as she was about to ask if the woman was alright, however, Jace sat up once more, seemingly recovered from her coughing episode.

Her concerned countenance turned to a smile as Jace grasped her hand, telling her of the value and joy that new life brought. Her face once again morphed, now to confusion, as Jace got up in a rush and began to rummage around in the kitchen, looking for something that Skye could not see or help her with, apparently. It was always strange, visiting Jace - she was her friend, and yet.. she was so.. strange, sometimes.

Jace then laid out some strips of meat on the table, and began to say strange words that were alien to Skye's ears, but no doubt held great importance to the arctic woman before her. Skye smiled as she finished the words and the translation, indicating that Skye should eat the food. As to not be rude, she took one of the strips of meat and began to eat it.

"Thank you very much, Jace," she said happily. "It means a lot to me." Although she did not know the value of the ceremony, she knew that it was important to Jace, and therefore, it was important to Skye.
