This glamorous woman seems to have no trouble giving this kind of attention, nor receiving clinging and crying from Richelle.
"Oh, Richelle... there there, darling... let it all out." She gently rubs soothing circles on Richelle's back, letting her sob for a few moments into her beautiful garment. It is only after Richelle's weeping has subsided a little that Empress tilts up Richelle's chin with a slender finger and brushes her tears away with the edge of her long silk sleeve.
"I promise I will get you home as soon as I'm able. The other Travelers will warm up to you soon, my love, just keep at it. You don't have to stay in your same clothes; you can learn to make whatever clothes you want with a thought. Maybe one day soon, you will be able to make other people outfits, as well. If you will it, this skill will come to you in time."
"It's not fair," Richelle sobs, still clinging to Mei. So many of the other people she's met have been mean, and annoying. But this woman's not like that. This woman understands. She can tell that Richelle's a sensitive soul.
Then she lifts her head, sniffs, and gives Mei a slightly dubious look through the tears. "You...want me to learn how to sew?" Richelle likes clothes, of course, but she's never really had the patience for making them. (Besides, she's seen how that goes with Liz. Liz might be her friend, but urgh, she absolutely doesn't understand fashion, and the awful clothes she makes for herself are proof of that.)
