[...She takes it all back, you're the best, Alaric. Blanche has to use her free hand to hide the strange mirth that overcomes her. Is that a chuckle?? From the stone-faced Queen??? Perish the thought!!]
Excellent. I knew I could count on you for such important tasks, Sir Alaric.
[Blanche will gladly raise her glass in a toast as well.]
Gladly, however. You have my word.
[Blanche is able to finish her tea quickly enough, at least. It's just like eating one's vegetables as a child; you hold your breath, stuff it all down, and pretend it doesn't taste like boiled garbage!! Easy as ever, 10/10. Blanche does signal that she's done, however, putting her glass back on the little plate.]
...I am glad that you do seem to be doing much better than you were earlier.
[Hopefully you didn't think you were going to avoid feeling forever, Alaric, but...it's a light brooch of the subject. If he has anything on his mind, she'll hear it.]
