No. [The unsure look disappeared.] He won't catch up to us, even if I get too sickly to move. Huskley won't ever hurt you.
[If only he could be as confident about some other things.]
I am confident of that much. You will be safe.

Do you really think that's all it is?
[Why did she think that? Didn't she understand how important she was?]

Sometimes, people change, Lydia. It doesn't happen often and without having a real to want to change but they can.
[He wants to argue, he really does but it would mean confessing.]
You're smart to believe that.
You're smart to believe that.
[ Isn't this the same guy who calls her naive? She can't quite bring herself to believe most of what he says on a normal day, but as he calls her smart for not trusting his word... she still isn't even sure he believes that she can see fairies or not. Everything's such a question with this guy.. ]
Edgar, you should go sit down.
Edgar, you should go sit down.
[There's a slight widening of his eyes as he registers surprise.]
You're inviting me in?
You're inviting me in?

[Was he really so abrasive before? It seemed hard to imagine.
Gladly accepting her invitation, he goes by her and takes a seat, suddenly unsure where to put his hands.]
I hope this room is comfortable enough.

[ Lydia nods. It's more comfortable than sleeping on a chair in a cabin or in a carriage anyway. ]
It's fine. [ She's going to try to take his temperature again, getting close to his face like she's trying to check his eyes to see if they're glossy or anything. ]

[No, she's trying to murder him. There was no other explanation for it, after all, the way his heart beat in his chest. She had to be able to hear it, she was so close...]
...Lydia?
...Lydia?
[What are you talking about? She's trying to kill him right now.]
You're very close.
You're very close.
Well I have to be to check these kinds of things.
[ Her cheeks turn faintly pink, if only because she knows he's going to make a comment about it somehow that's less than kosher. ]
I might not be a human doctor, but I know a little bit of first aid.

[His mouth opens, ready to answer but the words die in his throat. She looks so cute like that. Lydia, do you have any idea?]
Lydia, I'm fine. [Even better than he was when he came in.] Thank you.
[He'll stand, giving a soft sigh. He didn't feel sick...He supposed Lydia couldn't help being...helpful.]
No, I really do feel fine.
No, I really do feel fine.
[Edgar...realizes this but if she's going to pull fake rank for him...How could he call himself a man and refuse her that?
So, possibly for the first time ever, Edgar gave in to Lydia.]
All right. I'll get some rest and check in on you when I wake up.
