Violet wrinkled her nose slightly at being called 'adorable'--it wasn't how she saw herself. Strangely, hearing her mother use the term didn't bother her the way it would have if someone else said it. This was what it felt like to have a mother, then, she thought to herself, feeling as if something heavy that she'd been carrying ever since she could remember had at last been lifted.

"Oh, Mum!" she said, allowing herself to use that silly-sounding nickname that everyone else used--this was a special occasion, after all. "You do remember, then, don't you?" Violet noticed that her mother hadn't mentioned what had happened to her to cause this memory lapse, or her father, but tactfully didn't bring it up. Time for that later--after all, it wouldn't do to upset the woman, right after taking a potion. Besides, Violet didn't feel like she was ready to discuss her father right now either. "Thank you, Miss H...er, Jane," she said glancing up at her former governess for a moment. "I knew you could do it!"

Jane smiled and nodded before walking over to the door of the room. She had been fairly confident in her elixir, since it had already been used on a number of people over the last few years, but she had not been quite as sure of success as Violet had apparently been. Right now she wanted to slip out and confer with one of Helena's healers, and give mother and daughter a little privacy.
