Huh? [Cue Iwa blinking dumbly in Virdi’s direction. So, yeah, maybe he did think she was that oblivious (then again, maybe he just thought she was that difficult), but as it turns out, she’s...actually being pretty understanding about this whole thing. He idly considers that maybe he should stop thinking of her as an actual child once in a while, but...well, just look at her! It’s tough.

[He grins a little when she offers her compromise and gives a thumbs up.]

Sounds like a deal to me, Your Radiance. It really would be no fun if we didn’t have some outside pressure.

[It would probably be too much to tell her that he actually appreciates that she knows he’s taking this seriously, so he leaves that thought behind for good measure. No need to get all goopy.]
