Goodness, to phrase it such...

[ At least she's in good spirits... ]

We are more well acquainted now, anyroad. It would still feel much too brazen for anyone I had only just met.

[ But he's old fashioned. ]

[misstrust]

You're very polite, you know that? Although I suppose there are other words for it...

[ He gives a short laugh, soft and quiet. ]

My parents did raise me so... But of course, Dorothy.

I should let you rest.

Not everyone can be so fortunate. [ A tad softly, but she smiles and offers him a nod. ]

I'll be better tomorrow, I'm sure. Good night, Alphinaud.

[ He nods, and stands. ]

Sleep well, Dorothy.
