Irina gave a pretty little bewildered blink at the innuendo and ensuing titter laughter, pretending that the play on words went over her head. Privately, she was amused, though she was quickly coming to the conclusion Charlotte was the most dangerous one to her plans there.<br/><br/>"If any of the gentlemen need assistance, I would be very glad to help, though if they want me to load their gun, I fear they will find me frightfully slow," she replied pleasantly to Charlotte, giving Tyler and the doctor a nod.<br/><br/>Her eyes lit up brightly at the suggestion of riding, giving little hint she found it tedious unless it was merely a chance to show off her latest riding habit in Hyde Park. "Mmmm... Yes, I do enjoy a good ride..." she murmured with just a hint of suggestion in her voice. Perhaps the pretty widowed countess really did understand some innuendo?<br/><br/>She made note of everything said about the fortunes of their host's family, as well as any of the other guests.  That was her purpose in being her, after all.
