Katrin cocks her head to Sable, a look of instant sorrow on her face as if she was about to steal the candy from the baby.
"You misunderstand, Sable. The ticket vill just allow you into the Hollow. There vill be no train ride."
She really did fell bad but it will soon pass. Being honest was a good thing, sometimes, especially to certain individuals.

Sable just issued an embarrassed squeak and sank back into her chair. She mentally punished herself for not thinking clearly, as usual. Had it really been so long since she had mingled with her own kind? It was hard to tell, so much time was spent in the dark.
"Sorry,miss. Is there anything we should be careful for on our way?"
yeah, change the subject...

"Just be careful. I vould hate for the pair of you to get into any more trouble." Katrin releases a light chuckle before moving to the register and removing some money, giving it to Sable and Joshua to share.
"This should help vith groceries and new clothes, yes."
There is $50 in all.

Sable tucks her 25$ into her back pocket like a teenager getting money for the movies. "Thank you, for doing this for us, like Josh said," she offers meekly.

Katrin smiles genuinely, placing her hand on the Darkling's shoulder.
"What are Sovereigns for, if not to help our own? Now, go, see Gianna."
She removes her hand after giving Sable a confident squeeze, wiping it on a handkerchief she pulls from her pocket.

Sable nods to Katrin then slinks out of her chair. She turns and gives one more, barely audible, "thanks," at the door for Katrin's confidence boost, then exits the room to wait for Joshua in the store proper.
