[QUOTE="Binder Fred, post: 6155007, member: 63746"] [b]Antares, Muzdin, Stellan[/b] Not quite enough then, or not an appropriately thoughtful kind of a thing? (and he rather liked that ring too)... Still, at least the appearance of proprieties has been observed, and that has to count for something? Will slowly relax her mood? Or could it be she is distracted by things other than themselves? Is signaling other tasks weighting on her mind?
