[ Just to make sure it isn't too careful, too soft, isn't treating her too much with kit gloves - she leans down, and finds the top of Adrienne's ear to nip. Not hard, no more than an annoyance. ]
( there's a light noise of complaint at the nip but if anything adrienne nuzzles in more rather than moving away )
Life can be a shitty enough fight. Sometimes... we need people to remind us we don't need to fight.
( or that there's something else. there's a sentiment that she's not worded well, that there are other things to do, reasons to survive than fight, that letting people be there is good. like odessa nudged on her )

But I love a fight. But guess I got one here too.

( and maybe she'll nuzzle a little more just to really make it known, especially with how comfortable she is )
