[ The hug is instantly returned, and for a moment Sonia wishes she'd had something like this before. Some sort of support system like this. Her parents had loved her dearly - it must be "had", now, even though she last remembers them alive - but she had never been a person before she had been a princess.

On the island, it was different. In Haven, it is different. And it is bittersweet, because she knows she would still give up her life to her duties and her people, knows it must happen if they still exist in that place. ]

Someday...I'd like you to meet him.

[braavado]

I'd like to meet him, too.

[She leans her head against Sonia's, upset on her friend's behalf.]

If he's...you know. In Storage, we'll get him. We'll get everyone in there out.

[monarchical]

Yes. [ Quietly, but fiercely. ] That has always been my intent. I cannot leave any of them in this place. Nor can I allow Yao to continue as it has done.

[braavado]

And you know I'm not letting you do any of that alone.

[Then, trying to lighten the mood a little, Korra makes a weak little quip.]

Heck, maybe we'll get lucky and have all this done by the time my birthday rolls around. That'd be one heck of a birthday present.

[And all that she would want to ask for, honestly.]

[monarchical]

Your birthday? [ Well, it does seem to perk Sonia up. ] Oooh, when is it? Is it coming up soon?

[braavado]

Nah, I think we've still got a few months before then. It's March 22.

What about yours?

[monarchical]

Er, October 13th. I believe it fell during...

[ Well, the maze. Sonia gestures to Korra's cheek. ]

[braavado]

...oh. [That makes Korra frown.] I can't believe we missed it.

That means we're gonna have to do something now.

[And Korra will have to make a present, somehow!]

[monarchical]

I mostly forgot about it in the chaos, to be honest - and really, I am not...entirely certain how old I ought to be.

[ MEMORY...LOSS...TIMELINE SHENANIGANS...though she will blink at Korra. ]

Oh? Such as what?

[braavado]

I have to get you a present! [At the very least.]

Uh...I think we're out of luck for the cake, though. Even if we found all the ingredients, I'd probably just burn the kitchen down.

[monarchical]

Presents in Haven...we have to get a little creative, do we not? But it is an excellent challenge!

[ ...and then a small laugh. ]

Er, I fear I would, as well...no one has ever taught me much about cooking, you see...

[braavado]

That’s okay. We’ll just have to find a substitute for the cake or something.

Compared to everything else we’ve faced here, this should be [grin] a piece of cake.

[Sorry, Sonia. She just went there.]

[monarchical]

[ IF ONLY Sonia didn't laugh at that...but she does. ]

Well, you are right about that! Honestly, fruit seems a lovely treat these days, even with the gardens.

[braavado]

Then we can head over to the garden and pick some apples to share later, since neither of us can bake.

How does that sound?

[monarchical]

That sounds absolutely fantastic! It is a date!
