writerverse drabble prompt "just friends"
Summary: The Old Tongue has several words for 'friend' as Honor discovers
Warnings: None
"Katerina mo cara es," Honor said carefully.
"No."
Honor frowned. "Should it be es mo Cara?"
"Either works, really," Cal said. "Not many people are speaking the Old Tongue fluently and written records have it both ways."
"I know. So what was wrong with that?"
"Not cara. That means friend."
"Yes." Honor said expectantly.
"Just friend. Like Briana is your friend. It's not wrong. Just inaccurate."
"So what do you suggest?" Honor demanded.
"Innooin."
"Meaning?"
"Beloved."
At Honor's expression, Cal added hastily, "I'd be innooin too. It's for anyone closer than an acquaintance. I'm not saying mo chroí, literally, 'my heart'."
However accurate that might actually be.
