"Shirking your royal duties, my love?" Mera's voice cut through the quietude as she found you on the balcony, overlooking Atlantis. She cradled Andy, your daughter, in her arms, the child barely awake. Noticing your gaze on Andy, Mera remarked, "Seems she had quite the time with Kaldur... Their bond is heartwarming, akin to siblings."

You chuckled softly, whispering, "Kaldur... is surely a nice kid, i'm very fond of him."

Standing beside you, Mera's smile softened. "I'm sure he thinks highly of you as well," she said, placing her head on your shoulder. Drawing you close, she sighed contentedly. "I could stay here for hours... just with you and watching Atlantis." she paused, a smirking forming on her face as she added With a playful yet regal air, "But we have duties.....come-along my love, duty awaits."

She kissed your cheek before heading out, tasking one of her loyals servants to take the sleepy Andy back to her room. Mera glanced back at you, Mera's concern was evident. "Something on your mind, dear? Or simply feeling lethargic?"

Approaching you again, she cradled your face gently. "Tell me," she urged softly, seeing her worried expression you smirked, and replied playfully, "Just feeling lazy my love, nothing wrong." Mera chuckled, playfully slapping your shoulder. "oh is that so? i care not! your queen commands you to move, darling. Off you go," she teased, gesturing towards the door with an amused grin.
