Elara inclined her head in quiet acknowledgment as more of the table filled, the rhythm of greetings and familiar exchanges settling into place around her. It was easy enough to step into, to let it pass through without needing to claim too much of it.

“I’m settling in well,” she answered Dhruv, her tone easy, a small, polite warmth threading through it. “Still deciding what belongs where.” A faint glance downward the table followed, brief, almost incidental.

“Some arrangements seem to have a mind of their own.”

Sarika’s welcome drew a softer shift in her expression, something closer to genuine ease. “Thank you,” she said. “I’ll take that as a good sign.”

Her attention drifted then, momentarily caught by the fanged geranium. The plant’s quiet, toothy snapping earned the smallest lift of her brow, not quite surprise, not quite concern. “Confident choice,” she remarked to Lillian, voice mild, though the faint edge of amusement was difficult to miss. “I assume it’s well fed.”

The table continued to fill, conversation layering over itself, and Elara let it. Observed, rather than inserted herself into every thread. It suited her.

Wilber’s arrival, however, was… harder to ignore. Her gaze followed him just long enough to take in the remnants of whatever battle he had apparently fought and survived on the way in. Cream, caramel, and all.

There was a pause.

Then, very deliberately, she reached into the sleeve of her robes and produced a neatly folded handkerchief, setting it within his reach without ceremony. “Here you go. You might find this useful,” she said, tone composed, though the quiet amusement sat just beneath it. “Before the kitchens attempt a second round.” she added, smiling, “And thank you, definitely looking forward to the feast. It's certainly been a while since I had one here”
