[ bless him, though it doesn't get any "better" as she replies rather blandly. ]
Someone.
[ for a moment, it looks like she might continue with it but her lips draw into a thin line and she ends up saying nothing else. try again down the road, horse dad. for now, this is all izumo will tell him.
Mm. [He doesn't seem particularly bothered by the lack of a detailed reply; that she answered at all is surprising, for he would have accepted just a glare for prying.
So he nods, gently shifting the conversation onward.]
Whatever business you have to attend to back home... with any luck we will not remain here for long, though I admit, seeing as housing and food has been provided...
[He's not going to offer optimism without realism, sorry]
[ funny how situations change one's reaction to certain questions, huh? that said she's very glad that was enough for him because she would have glared at him or made an attempt to deflect the conversation away from expanding the knowledge....
but, yeah, she'll nod making no real comment about the housing and food situation. rather, just how perfectly planned it is. ]
It does look like they have plans for us to be here for a while, from the looks of it.
