It seems like more time has passed than it actually has and she's been holding her breath this whole time waiting for Antiope's answer. Part of her worries the woman will say no or not yet and she's not sure how she'll react to that. She feels like she's worked so hard for this and the time is right, but it has to be the Sovereign's decision.
But then Antiope says it's her's and Morr almost wants to jump out of her seat from excitement. She even sees Bram perk up from where he's been resting. The painted mare keeps her composure though and just puffs out her chest with a smile. "Thank you, Antiope. I won't let you down." And she means it. Even when her anger gets the best of her, she will take her promotion and responsibilities seriously.
When Antiope gets up to leave, she makes a comment about etiquette lessons, likely referring to her food issues earlier. Morrighan's ears droop and her cheeks feel hot with embarrassment. Dammit. She shoots Bram a glare when she hears him snickering in the corner.
The Sovereign's footsteps fade down the hall as Morr takes the last few bites of her food with a scowl. It's clear now that she won't be living that down any time soon.
