That was an unfortunate shift in the mood and she couldn't understand the cause but Nariko didn't allow it to bother her, either. She was far too preoccupied with the matter at hand, and that involved taking herself down a different path and beyond her own door. In the quiet she allowed herself to breathe for a moment, closed her eyes and attempted to make proper sense of her own feelings but everything was a jumbled mess. The feeling of it might not properly ebb until sometime tomorrow.
She changed from the heavy lace and satin of her wedding dress to an equally flattering but lighter and equally flattering dress, as appropriate for both occasions as anything could be. Most importantly the leather at just right on her, half-hidden by the folds of the lower portion. At first she was content with her father's gun but it was as she went to retrieve Roland's gift that Joshua's gun caught her eye. It was well polished and cleaned, he hadn't been apart from it for very long, but it wouldn't see any use up here and locked away. She grabbed it with a sigh, and then tucked it into the space that usually held her knife. For the first time in her life there were two, and it felt wrong, but what in this world ever felt entirely right?
There was no wrapping the thing, mostly because it would have appeared a pile of mess if she had tried, better to just fold it neatly and carry it along. Married or not she wasn't going to just walk into his room that was ... It was an invasion of privacy. They could handle each other now, it seemed, but they weren't that close so whether he found it odd or not she knocked with one hand while the other knocked on his door. It was a bit odd that he wasn't already out here but she put that out of her mind, she couldn't handle gift giving and logic at the same time, so the logic would come at a later time.
omfg Roland :l
