Off-Season Mother's Day [Nelliel, Ninsianna]

"Don't sweat it."

She said a bit more jubilant than the woman must be feeling but she didn't want to burden Ninsianna with the feeling that she had let down her daughter or failed in some way as a mother.

"I'll take Alex out with us later so you two can be alone. I'm sure she can find some lovely spots to show us. Good luck, Ninny."

It did sound fun to explore this spot and sightsee. She did miss Alex quite a bit and hoped that the dear daughter missed her parents too but after the time that Inanna had spent living with them it seemed sad to separate them and it gave her a bit more freedom.

Maybe it would be good for Ninsianna as well.

Nelliel's cheer was at least somewhat infectious, and Ninsianna's spirits were raised at the little show of support. She'd done her best to connect with others better, and she felt confident she'd found a good friend.

"Thank you, Nel. I will let you know how the conversation goes."

It felt strange, to use a nickname such as that. It wasn't especially in Ninsianna's nature to do. But it was the sort of thing friends did, and it was certainly something that she felt she ought to reciprocate if Nelliel had given her one. She was still far from normal, far from a perfect mother or friend, but every step toward either was a step in the right direction.

Well, she'd gleaned everything that she could about the Ichigo situation that she felt she could. Spoken of the wellbeing of her daughter and even given a bit of motherly advice.Nelliel thought she did pretty well for the girl time, right?

Finishing her tea quickly the arrancar might've liked to stay but she knew that she had precious limited time here since she wanted to pursue this Ichigo problem, Ninsianna was nice but she wanted to spend time with Alex and to let Alex spend time with her parents together.

"Well, thank you for taking the time to talk about this. Would you like to join the girls and Alex with me? I'm sure Inanna would love to have you with us."

For a moment, Ninsianna felt she ought to decline that offer, feeling as if she would be intruding on their family affair. But Nelliel was certainly right, and she knew that. Inanna would be overjoyed to have here there, to meet those she held dear. With a smile, she nodded, finishing her own tea as well.

"Yes, I would quite like that. Thank you."

She had work to do, certainly. Realistically, Ninsianna could hardly afford to be taking a day off even now. But she would still take this time for herself, knowing perfectly well that she could not work indefinitely. There was only so much she could do, and for now, she would enjoy this brief little rest with friends.
