MAKE ME QUEEN OR
I'LL MAKE YOU BLEED

Cooper's condition had provided Margaery with yet another thing to fret about. It stood next to Bast and Suite's fight, Suite's death, her father, and her own lack of control as each day came and went, adding weight to her fragile shoulders as she tried so desperately to keep her head up. Margaery had never been as close to Coop as Suite had, but that didn't change the fact that she cared deeply for him. He was a good man and her wife's best friend, their friendship rivaling the one Suite had shared with Akira all those months ago. If anything ever happened to him, Margaery would be absolutely devastated and she dreaded that day of her immortal life when she'd finally have to part from him.

But it appeared as if Cooper's condition had taken a turn for the better, especially given the fact that he was out and about and so far from the Observatory. She turned in the direction of the commotion, chocolate-capped paws leading her lean form closer and closer to the trio. She was completely oblivious of Cooper's early struggles, merely permitting a smile to appear upon her lips as she realized that he was very much okay again. That light in her eyes dwindled though, swallowing harshly the moment she sensed the tension between Bast and Suite. Had Cooper not been present, maybe she would have finally grown a spine and say something... But she knew that anything pertaining to that mattered would be more of a berating on her part.

[b]"Oh, love..." She instead elected to breathe, pushing down the feelings of rage and desperation that had begun to accumulate in her chest (though she did hope that Suite was faintly aware of them, aware of her pain), "I'm so glad you're okay." Margaery attempted to sound as bright and cheery as possible, but even her words betrayed a bit of her inner turmoil. No... Stop... She thought angrily to herself. This was about Cooper. Not her. Never her. "How does it feel to be out and about again? We missed you... A lot."
