A small smile, a flick of Flora's tails. "It is... Not about a discovery. It's about something else," the feline mumbles as she rides her golem back into the building, towards the dining-room. "Flora has... Things going on. Lots of things. Flora is... Planning a lifebond, for one... That stays secret for now, yes," she mumbles, ears folded back as she looks between Lina and Selena... "Flora has... Reasons."
Lina blinks and nods as she eyes Flora. "Of course, I'll keep everything I know secret..." as she thinks things over she twitches a little and looks to Selena. "What will you be having, I should get food ready."
Selena blinks, looking back to the cat. "I see. Congratulations." She replies, sounding a little taken aback. "Well, first, let's head inside?" She suggests, frowning slightly and falling quiet for a few moments as she considers.
"That is... Part of the thing. But yes, dining room first, yes. Right this way," she mumbles with a smile, guiding Selena along and allowing Lina to make her way to the kitchen.
Sveta enters the manor after a long day out on the streets, looking slightly ruffled. She notices everyone out in the courtyard, and pauses to regard them. "Lady Longtail. Selena. Lina. Why...why are you all out here? Did something happen?"
Lina is slightly disheartened when she again fails to get a response out of Selena, but is a patient feline. She walks along wih the others for a bit, hoping to get a response before she moves off towards the kitchen, only to stop and wave to Sveta. "Hey! We met the deer spirit and he didn't want any food so he left, but FLora talked to him about something interesting."
Selena looks back over at Lina for a few moments, before her ears perk up a little more, calling after the cat "Pardon, Lina; I might pass on any food for now. I'm not terribly hungry." She finally replies, waving over to Sveta. "And now you're here. You did just meet Kendrac, as Lina said, following after the others.
A soft rumble, a nod. "Yes. We spoke to sir Kendrac. Flora will explain everything over breakfast, yes. Is friend Sveta alright?" she asks curiously, her tails twitching lightly as she moves along. "Flora also needs to ask friend Sveta the same thing she wants to ask friend Selena... It means... A lot to Flora, yes."
As Flora and Selena move to the dining hall Lina recruits Sveta in aiding with the cooking, because two folks cooking is faster than one in her mind. Soon a meal of chicken, with added lime and lemon as requested, with the feline taking special note as Sveta makes a few additives of her own. She excitedly brings it out for all involved to enjoy, sitting down so that Flora can tell those gathered what they need to know.
Flora smiles softly as she takes her own seat, still resting sideways atop her golem and mumbling to herself. "As Flora noted... Flora has her reasons to plan a lifebond... Flora has... Two of them," she mumbles, before looking between Sveta and Selena. "Flora would ask friends Sveta and Selena to function as... Caretakers as well. As... What's the word...

Sveta fluffs, still not quite having started poking at the chicken. "I can consent to that, I believe. It does not seem any different from what I was planning, anyway. Even if the formality of such a relationship can be strenuous at times."
It takes a few moments for Flora's admission to sink in, the wolfess taking a deep breath and resting her elbows on the table, closing her hands over the base of her muzzle in such a way it also keeps her eyes from view. "Twins, then." She comments quietly, drawing a longer than average breath.
"... I'll do what I can, Flora. I'd rather not give a definite answer at the moment, there's... Something I have to take care of before I can take on any more responsibility like that. I hope you're content with your situation as far as partners go."

"I hope you enjoy the food, is there anything else I can get you?" she asks as she looks to Selena and Sveta, more specifically Selena who seems to be taking things in a strange manner.

A blink from Flora, a soft whine leaving her muzzle. "Flora... Flora doesn't think so, no... But... Flora would like to know what's wrong, yes... See if Flora can help," she mumbles, looking back to Selena.
