"I think I need more distractions if I'm to be patient," she says with a sigh. It's easy to forget about her worries when she's busy with something else. "The reading material will help, but it's only going to get me so far. And it can only take up so much time between jobs."

She grabs herself another piece of bread and a slice of cheese to go with it, motioning for Viatorus to do the same. Her tea is still steeping, possibly forgotten with the conversation going on. "How do normal people stay patient? How do people as detached from a normal life as me possibly keep from going crazy while waiting?" There's a thoughtful look on her face as she eats her way through the bread and cheese.

This would be so much easier if she could simply make friends like normal people.
