When Ayden talked about her wedding she was disconnected in a way Asha couldn't really explain, other than that her enthusiasm did not sink far below her skin. But that she wasn't really lying either. Just... overacting? She shrugged it off in any case, like she did most things that pressed the boundary of privacy with strangers. The conversation seemed to enliven Emily, despite the copious yawns, and given the woman's kindness Asha felt gratified to feel it, and happy to offer back the aid she receive.
Though.
Shopping.
Asha had never done something so girlish in her life, nor had ever been encouraged to indulge such frivolity by her uncle. The fact such places were a hive of overwhelming activity of course didn't help - she was naturally inclined to stay away. But an amused smile lifted the corners of her lips at the spark of Ayden's interest nonetheless. It wasn't the idea of shopping that swayed her so much as Emily's enthusiasm and the promise of pleasant company for a time longer. She had no money anyway, nor any interest in buying stuff she didn't need even if she could afford it. "Sure. Why not."
