'Goodness,' Evelyn thought with a slight smile, 'they sure do have a lot to say.' In contrast, Evelyn hadn't really said much at all. She had not described her feelings much, where she was from, where she wanted to go, or how she felt about having this mark and in truth, they hadn't really asked her either - they seemed mostly wrapped in one another, but still fully aware of her. It was a tad strange at the moment, but she did smile shyly as Amelia pretended to give her hug, even if she was a tad disappointed she didn't actually receive it. She hadn't been sure whether she was worried about squire duties or not since she wasn't entirely clear on what it meant to be a squire - to learn how to fight, she assumed? It earned an internal shrug from her, as even being beaten to a pulp in training grounds was much preferred to being whipped and hit in the basement of some angry slaver. She wasn't sure if she ever dare tell them what she'd truly prefer though, for her life. Evelyn imagined it was not co-exist with their duty to follow her mark in the least, which was indeed sad. Ironic that, she thought, that the very thing to save her might possibly keep her from a simple life.
Evelyn had been quietly following and listening, smiling to the old man as they passed him, and looking around at all the books for a few moments. It wasn't until Ellie asked Amelia about her state of being that Evelyn decided to interject randomly. "Perhaps we should collect the book and find a room?" She looked between the two of them, interested in their response. "I mean, I know we're not suppose to be here... technically... but Amelia could use at least a nap and it would give us a chance to finally slow down, study, and perhaps get to know one another a bit more? We have been sort of on the go since you swept me off my feet, miss Ellie... and if we're going to be together as you say, I would like to know my two guardians?" She had said more than she had before, for the most part, showing that she had actually been thinking things over as they pair spoke out loud - not to mention, to the observant, she was very well spoken for a supposed servant.
