Those soft kisses occupy her for a time. Once they had to be stolen, but now she may indulge in them as fully as she wishes, and does. Impossible to imagine growing tired of them. "Mm...but for all that I strained at the bit before, my heart, I will now be content to wait until we are alone and I have your full attention." She strokes his face. "We may lie with each other every night. A few kisses in the council chamber pale in comparison."
It was always about the difficulty of finding an opportunity, before. She has no desire at all to perform to public scrutiny. If they may sate themselves in the private hours, that will be enough. Probably enough. Though those large, broad council tables would provide...certain opportunities...
Suddenly the tradition of giving a new-wedded couple a few days of privacy makes more sense to Eowyn. It is less a gift to the couple and more a protection from them. She laughs against his mouth, from sheer delight at the future spreading out before her, before them.
