Sounds about as harsh as what I'd be doing on the field during the war... but I'd rather not think about that right now.
[ She really doesn't want to think of the conflicts in the past that she aided as a healer in, those rough nights at the Matron's Reach and worse. That, and... those have memories of her husband, who she also doesn't want to think about.

Happy New Year. Make a wish.
[ That's all he'll get before she urges his face down to press their mouths together in a kiss, gentle and full of affection- and with the intimacy of her feelings.
( My wish is for you to accept the love you think you don't deserve. ) She thinks, suddenly feeling like her heart is racing with want for this lovely, sweet man- and that want simply embodies the need to see him content and happy.

It would be nice if he could find a bit of it with her, but she isn't selfish. Not much, anyway, and she hopes he'll let her be if she does decide to. For now, as she breaks the kiss briefly, she purrs slightly against him. ]
Let's do our best together, aye? I'll be happy if we can stand side by side.
