Emery nodded. "Certainly. He's kind of hard to get used to; I wish you luck when you see him again "

"Probably after the tour. Gaius likes to get things done fast."

“Oh.” Her stomach did a little flop. She didn’t like that at all. Maybe she should pretend to struggle when heading up the stairs. Slow things down. “… that’s soon.”

"Well, we have a whole tour to get through first," he pointed out. "It'll be fine!"

“Of course.” She dipped her head. “I’ve got nothing to hide anyhow. Just… hope I’m likable enough to keep around.”

"I have no doubt of that." Emery grinned.

Ky smiled a little. “… so will you go give Tadaaki the tour once I’m with Lord Ash?”

"Nope, Tadaaki has someone else with him. I can't really accompany two of you at once!"

"No. I'll be hanging out eating lunch or something. Gaius will call me back when it's over, unless you want some time alone in your room. I won't be with you when you're in there."

Ky nodded slowly. “…makes sense.”

She expected she would. If this went how she anticipated, she was going to need time to herself so she didn’t spontaneously combust.

“I don’t know,” she said honestly. “Tadaaki will be very, very nervous and not know what to say… I don’t know how Al will do. I don’t know him that well yet.”

Never saw him in this much pain before. Or forced to be this humble. Certainly not at the same time.

He nodded slowly. "I heard you two are kind of close. May I ask why?"

Oh, Brightlord Tumul! How unexpected it is to see you standing there! I didn't mean to insult your stupidity. Really, it's quite spectacular and worthy of much praise.
