Wait, did Alex get to Caspar before Amelia could introduce them? She's going to punch that man in the arm if it's true. "Impeccably dressed, thinks of every detail down to the thread color and how to compliment one's environment. Does that sound like your tailor?" Oh he's in so much trouble when Amelia gets her hands on him...
"Let me make up for not being there by getting the bards in order when you're ready." She smiles warmly at the couple, completely earnest with the offer. Being with her friends on their wedding day would have been wonderful, but it's more important that Caspar and Adia got to have the day than it being perfect in every way possible. There's always time to celebrate with friends and loved ones who don't live on Atlantis, as the party going on around them now showcases.
"At least there's coffee here for you when you can get away," she laughs. Amelia definitely understands the importance of the daily caffeine intake ritual. When asked about the library, she shrugs and carefully takes her hand back from Adia. "It's fine, but I haven't spent much time there lately. I've been in Asvera more often than even my own apartment most days." She hesitates for a moment, steadying herself with a silent breath. "I needed a place to go where I could feel useful. Asvera has come a long way since the Asgardians settled there, but there's always work to be done." It's something Amelia appreciates, even now when she's feeling better months after Steve's death.
She exhales a small sigh, then manages a smile for her friends. "To be honest, I simply like spending time there. It's the one place I've been since coming to the Nexus that feels like where I came from. The technology is still far beyond what I grew up with, but the place itself..." Her smile becomes a touch dreamy as she thinks about standing on the cliffs above the sea. "I feel calm there in a way I haven't in a very long time."
