Valdis snuggles down next to Erin, Xena playing the background. She's not really paying attention to it, more interested in the fluctuating emotions within Erin. She still feels guilty for leaving Erin alone to deal with the flowers, feels guilty that Tiamat had used her against the woman she loves. Being a new kind of weapon, essentially a hostage was more painful than she could ever have imagined.

She reaches for Erin's hand, lacing her fingers through Erin's. "I'm sorry, Erin."
