[Diarmuid's eyes widen when she says that and his face pales.]

W-what is that suppose to mean?

[athousandcurses]

[She had only been teasing, but his reaction makes her raise both eyebrows.]

Dear heart... it was only a tease. Your face could pass for the moon. Why, do you hold an attraction for him? I would not blame you.

[oathshackledbird]

No! Of course not!

[Diarmuid rubs his hand over his face as if it will rub away the shock still there.]

One wonders if you enjoy imaging us together if you are saying such things...

[athousandcurses]

[Well, that brought up a very pleasant mental image. Sorry, Diarmuid, she's going to be enjoying that image for a moment or two.

Not that the other women of the homestead hadn't done such things before... nope. Just that Grainne usually didn't join them...

All of her previous distress forgotten, she sighs.]

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid recognizes that happy sigh and his hand drops from his face, eyes wide once more.]

Grainne! That was not a suggestion that you do it!

[athousandcurses]

Peace, Diarmuid, I was only thinking of the two of you fighting back to back. [She pauses, mischief lighting up her eyes.] Or perhaps a wrestling match.

[The mischief fades into a look of fondness.]

Ah, my brave hawk, how is it that no matter what has happened, you never fail to lift my spirits?

[Perhaps 'spirits' was a bad word to say. Her face falls a little.]

Well... I should leave you in peace, and let you carry out your tasks. I will not trouble you with silly matters any further today.

[oathshackledbird]

[Right. Sure. Of course, that is what she was thinking of. Diarmuid knows better than to believe that. He sighs and shakes his head. Well, he will deal with some embarrassment if it makes her feel better. That is the important thing.]

I am glad to hear that. However, you are no trouble to me. If you end up needing any kind of help with your apology present, please let me know. Be well, Beloved.
