Ok. Yes, she could do this. She did, however, have to lean back a very tiny bit so that she brought her thumb up to her lips and drew it down in a quick motion, pointing at herself. 'I'm patient' it said. She pointed at her and signed 'You're worth the wait.' Really, neither of them were great at flashy romantic gestures it seemed, mostly because it just wasn't how Neopolitan communicated. She could be one hell of a peacock about so many things, but the fact that she didn't need to be with Emerald to speak her mind was really important to her.
'I know this will take time. This isn't easy, for either of us.' She wanted to make sure and exude the kind of confidence that she felt, that she understood that they were both really out there, in territory that wasn't easy to navigate for people like them. And she was ... ok with it. Because she had someone she could trust.]
