Have a pretty picture of a place I've been! :D

Amelia can't quite help the way her muscles relax or her posture returns to its usual proud state when Adia lets go of her hand. She's so unsure of reaching out to someone like that and every time she does it, she feels like she must be doing it wrong. Having her hand back, and with no contact with anyone, again, the rogue can carry herself without any worries. It feels good, even if some small part of her feels bad for being this way with someone who obviously cares for and respects her the way Adia does.

"It's beautiful, and feels very remote from the rest of the Nexus despite being next to the library. I'm not sure many people realize it's there." And, even better, the flowering trees are in full bloom this time of year, making it the most relaxing place Amelia can think of in the whole of the Nexus. It seems like Adia could use that right now.

Smiling back at her friend, she leads them away from Plaza in the general direction of the library. As the tall, familiar building comes into view, she turns from the paved road leading up to its doors down a small path beneath a tall willow tree that's slightly obscured by chest-high grasses. The path itself isn't quite wide enough for them to walk side-by-side, so Amelia steps forward to lead them. As they get farther in, the grass reaches over their heads, completely obscuring their view of what's ahead as the path winds about aimlessly. Finally, it opens out into a Japanese style garden, with not a single other soul in sight.

Once she's made it out from the path, Amelia steps aside to let Adia enjoy the view. She doesn't speak or ask the other woman's opinion, instead allowing Adia to take it all in at her own pace. This is a detour, after all, and such things should never be rushed.
