IN THE LIGHT : IN THE DARK VERSE (inspired by @hisflaws & @flammeus) 

she knows they don’t understand her references. she’s ninety percent sure that most white people haven’t read the mahabharata, or watched one of it’s many, many adaptations. that doesn’t stop her from calling murphy ‘gandhari’ or ‘gora’ though, every time she says something scathing or snarky or just plain mean.

she has always liked red tassinari a lot better to no one’s surprise. still, she believes that everyone is capable of goodness, greatness, even. and, yes, murphy mason is definitely included in that. even if she’s got a knife for a tongue.

whatever, at least pretzel’s cute.

it takes her a long while to explain where the name gandhari comes from. it was never meant as something malicious, though udyati can easily see how it could be interpreted as such.

that said, she’ll leave them to figure out the meaning of the word ‘gora’ on their own, thank you very much.

‘‘ What’s...new ? ‘‘ 

Shay repeats, bewildered.  It wouldn’t be of him to find himself at loss of words, but, well--the sudden question has definitely caught him off by surprise..

He stares at the stranger with furrowed brows, expecting her to leave by any moment, perhaps the lass has just mistaken him for another person, but she doesn’t seem to have any intention to leave without an answer, so he might as well give her one, no?

‘’ I--uh...’’ 

He mumbles, rubbing the back of his neck. What’s new? The curtains at Fort Arsenal, the mortars on the Morrigan, the newly opened tavern at Halifax, their victory over the last known assassin’s ship in the colonies--

After a few minutes debating of what he could say to her, Shay reached to his side to take his flintlock. 

“  ok first off that’s completely unfair.  ”              he’s covered in flour, though he’s not even certain if he used the right kind of flour for these dumplings.  he’s also questioning WHY they decided to learn how to make DUMPLINGS.  doesn’t that seem a little complicated for the first real meal to make?             “ second, i am doing the same thing you’re doing so the judginess in your voice needs to stop.  ”        he’s only sort of joking.  if they screw up this cake really who’s fault will it be?  red’s for convincing him that a cooking class is important and fun?????  yes.  let’s go with that.
