[Anna nods, already feeling her body growing sleepy just from the comfort of having Elsa nearby, her finger stroking the bridge of Anna's nose.]

Uh huh. Like medicines and plants that have healing properties...we could sell aloe plants, and lavender, and thyme, and cannabis...all kinds of tinctures and salves and things like we use here at home. Think about how many people we could help!

[defyingfrigidity]

[There's a momentary pause in Elsa's calming motions, but the expression that crosses her face is one of a mild concern, not any sort of unwillingness towards Anna's idea.]

I... do grow a small amount of cannabis already, specifically for Fiddleford. He's told me it helps a lot with some of his problems, but...

[Hm.]

Some people- [the twins] -make me worry that some might be a little reckless with it. We can grow it for others, of course, just... by request? Or we can make sure to keep an eye on it, like most pharmacies would with their stocks.

[If it helps, she'll happily give it to others. She just doesn't want to be the cause of someone developing an addiction or bad habits.]

[rediscover]

Oh, really? [Anna looks...a little abashed.] I did try a little with Lup. It seems like it has a real calming effect...

[She's not sure what Elsa's reaction to that will be, but she figures she should just be honest about it. After all, it's just a plant!]

I think that'd be wise. But what if...what if we did it? Opened some kind of apothecary?

[defyingfrigidity]

[Look, joking about how destructive the twins are aside, Elsa knows that Lup has a pretty good head on her shoulders. And she cares, and knows how much Elsa cares about Anna, so she's sure that Lup wouldn't give Anna something dangerous. At least on purpose.]

Hmm... well, that was what Fiddleford said it helped with...

[Maybe she was just fretting for nothing, and it was just The Twins Being The Twins? Ah well... she lets it go with a little shrug.]

I'd like that. Finding more ways to help others... [Her arms squeeze Anna just a little tighter.] You really are the smarter of the two of us, you know.

[Smarter, stronger... it's almost weird, that Anna wasn't born first. She'd make a much better big sister than Elsa does.]

[rediscover]

Pff, what? No way—

[She's sleepy-faced as she cranes her neck upward to look at Elsa.]

We're both really smart. And pretty.

[Anna cracks a huge yawn.] I wanna do it, Elsa...

[defyingfrigidity]

[Elsa smiles at the compliment, but some of that fades as she looks down at her sister. Nothing will ever be able to ruin how adorable Anna is, no sir, but it just sort of... sinks in as she takes in the patch covering Anna's empty eye socket. The leafy hair trimmed short to even out what the poachers had cut away. More than any of the physical aches she felt, that hurt, seeing her sister like this...]

But you're beautifuller. [It's an attempt at a joke, something she can still laugh about so long after her coronation, but it rings a bit hollow with the sudden somber air clouding around Elsa.] And nothing that happened to us will ever change that. I just want you to know.

[They can think about business and how to expand their ability to help later. Elsa still wants to make sure that this is a night of comfort that the two of them most desperately need, so a little reassurance would be good about now.]

[rediscover]

No, you're...fuller...

[Anna giggles, soft and sleepy, as her eyelids start to droop.]

We're here for each other. No matter what, Els.

[Without quite realizing, Anna's hand reaches up and her fingers close around one of the longer strands that remain of Elsa's hair. It's like a security blanket. But really, her sister's presence is a security blanket. The soft lull of her voice is all Anna needs to fall into the best sleep she's had in weeks.]
