"Happy birthday, Petra." Marianne speaks the usually-shouted statement quietly before falling silent once again. The eye contact she'd made with the Brigid woman had been brief and now she found herself staring at the ground again, thoughts running wild. Should she have offered a gift? They weren't close, so . . "H-Happy birthday." She repeats nervously, face growing hot. "I should probably go now, so you can celebrate properly. ." //Hello :')
The significance of Marianne approaching Petra to speak and wish her a belated birthday was not lost on the Brigid native. Petra still didn’t entirely know the reason Marianne had such a difficult time being around others for long periods of time, and she wan’t sure if she would ever be truly made aware, though it was a different reaction than what Bernadetta usually displayed. Nonetheless, Brigid’s future Queen was happy to receive her well wishes for a day to commemorate her birth and signify her age increasing.
"Thank you, Marianne! I am having much gratitude for your greeting. But you are not needing to be leaving. I am liking to celebrated-...I mean, to be celebrating this day with my friends. You can be staying if you want. I will not be minding.”
