petrana: glitch.

Glitch is forever endeared to Petra for two reasons: pleasant company for tea, and more importantly, he fixed her locket. The sentimental value of that particular item of jewelry is, uh, complex, but the notion of a shadow of Martel breaking it beyond her ability to repair was ... hurtful and galling in a lot of conflicting ways. Petra will probably never explain to Glitch how much it meant to her that he could help, because she's p. sure it makes her sound like a fucking lunatic, but it's more or less secured him the ability to rely on her for assistance if he ever needs anything she can provide. He may or may not even have to ask. Emotions are weird.

As for Glitch as a person - she's not totally sure how to handle him, finding him by turns more delicate than she's used to and not, perhaps, as delicate as she'd thought. Which isn't reassuring because it only puzzles her. She likes Glitch, finding him charming and easy company, but he's kind of a mystery to her and she hasn't had the time she'd like to devote to puzzling him out. (Puzzling people out, you may have noticed, is kind of her thing.)

The addition of Ambrose Langwe (shit did I spell that right) to the mix only added to her bemusement and interest; she can't quite reconcile the two of them and she very much wants to. She was extraordinarily disappointed that she only had such a brief conversation with Ambrose, partly because he was intriguing in and of himself and partly because mostly there aren't a lot of people in Taxon who operate in a way she finds familiar, and it's comforting.
