For a few moments, Rita can only stare in surprise as the fae confirms that she is, in fact, Ignatius's mother. This is a meeting that probably would have gone completely differently, had they met at any other time...

And now Strange is running his mouth about how much the general in question has changed... Rita gives an exasperated sigh, though she doesn't try to interject. Instead, she tries tapping into that connection she has with Ignatius, through her heart, giving him a light prod to try and get his attention. The longer they stand around gossiping about him, the worse it'll probably be for him, so she'll try to give him a chance to step in before things get too awkward.
