Firefly just quirked a brow at her sibling for a moment and was silent. She really didn't think that Ember wanted the finer details of her personal life and she wasn't exactly offering them right now. She just gave a small simple smile as she nodded, more to herself than her sibling as they finally stood before the small cottage that one time the gardener of the vineyards had lived in, now Firefly's parttime home.
While Ember spoke of where she'd been Firefly raised her eyes off the building for a moment and back to her sister. She asked quietly, "Why don't you just come back? Winter's coming.." She knew that Cercelee would be thrilled to see the ebony girl again, and though Firefly herself wasn't sure how she'd feel with the truth of it all she'd rather not see any of her family roughing it in the coming season. Her eyes flicked back to the house as she went on. "Or you could stay with mother, atleast for the winter.." They both knew full and well that Iskata would have taken in any of her children without so much as a second thought and perhaps Ember would be safe there.. Firefly couldn't be sure that even existed in Dahlia de Mai.
He might might have been a million miles away but she still found it easy to laugh at the simplicity of her sister as she tried to find the right placement for the place Firefly had chosen. "Yeah.. you'd have expected something a little more savage?" Truthfully Firefly didn't visit the cottage too often in the summer or fall months but with the nip of winter she knew the warmth of the fire and a nice place to curl up would be worth the expense of being almost human.
