"Of course," She smileder  rather maliciously in the direction of the stewertess, appearing to even step together with the man and stand rather closely.  This wasn't a possessive gesture, as she certainly claimed no ownership of the man, or want of ownership for that matter.  He was most assuredly handsom, and she liked the cut of his worn suit, but this display was merely a flag suggesting that she was allowed to leave the craft, with a man, free of working-woe, and that the other woman was not.  A kind of "rubbing it in."<br/><br/>"This plan works," She began, once they were out of earshot of the stewertess. "but I think perhaps I should portray either your wife or your fiance.

Although Lavinia had never been to Mordania, she wagered that it's close proximity and shared language with Romania instilled in it similar cultural characteristics.
