Moving over to the sitting room, Carolyn smiled slightly at the time gazing at Tehr a bit thoughtfully as he spoke. Listening quietly and calmly, a smile playing on her lips, she drew a short breath before speaking up in a calm tone, seeming to be relaxed but still watching him as she spoke up.<em><strong>"Master Tehr, I thank you for being willing to keep things in confidence, and also ah-"</strong></em>She drew a longer breath and shifted her seating to cross her legs one over another, looking slightly downwards.<br/><br/><em><strong>"I am going to revert to the semi-formal talk now and then. I had come to expect it in many occasions, and to see people as relaxed as here, it is still making me both nervous and yet feeling welcoming. I am not as nervous about forgetting a little rule and making a social guaffe here, believing I would not face such scorn here as I might elsewhere, but if I am to aid around then I may need to, from time to time, to remind myself of those lessons when stepping outside the House."</strong></em>She shifted her hands on her lap, sighing lightly.<em><strong>"From what I have understood from my 'brother' however, you have not been pushing 'him' to shifting for the sake of information. From what I have heard so far, it seems more that it has come in handy for... playtimes."</strong></em>She was somewhat red cheeked but pushed onwards bravely.<em><strong>"With that in mind, I understood that my presence would be welcome and I could find a home as well as a purpose here."</strong></em>She paused briefly, gazing over at him.<br/><br/><em><strong>"I am not saying I am unsatisfied but I feel a little nervous still, at times. I would like to be able to help out in some ways, the talk today and the tea-time showed that there's a fairly friendly social circle in Londinium to keep track of, but from what I've heard from Christina, Alex and Rosalyn alike, there's also the more unpleasant cases out there as well. Given our own House reputation, hurtful bastards are not exactly a new thing for us to encounter, but still."</strong></em>She raised her gaze back up to look at him, determination clear in her eyes.<em><strong>"Nonetheless, from what little time I've spent here so far I can't fault my 'brother' for aligning himself with you, and I find myself wanting to prove myself in some way. Yet I ah..."</strong></em>She glanced aside, before steeling herself and gazing back at him.<br/><br/><em><strong>"I feel I moved a touch fast and a bit too hurried on my arrival, given what I thought to possibly expect, but I'd like to know my master a little better now, and how I can be of help, and hopefully find a way to fit into things here. Everyone wants to feel needed."</strong></em>She mumbled something more underneath her breath at the end though.<strong><em>"-and it might keep me busy for a moment while I am still guessing what bits Alex and Lady Christina are serious about and when they're pulling my leg..."</em></strong>
