I suppose it might trouble your lady, you're correct.

[arcsplainist]

... Quite. And I've little intention of giving her the wrong impression.

[misstrust]

You're a little too young for me.

[arcsplainist]

You say that as if I am a child...

[misstrust]

[ She gives him a look. ]

Are you also one thousand years old?

[arcsplainist]

—Huh? Oh, certainly not. But no one is still a child at seventeen summers, either!

[ #justyeoldethings ]

[misstrust]

... No, that is very much still a child.

[ Please. ]

[arcsplainist]

Well, not in my homeland.

[ so... there? ]

[misstrust]

But we're not in your homeland.

[arcsplainist]

Nor yours, for that matter.

... But I suppose it is a moot point, as previously established.

[misstrust]

As you say.

[ But Alphinaud is still a babby in her eyes. ]
