[Childe responds by shooting back a satisfied smile, setting his own arms akimbo to mirror the prince. Following Aether's eyes, he also gazes over towards Elise, noting how engrossed she is with the garden.]

I think so too. She's a nice girl, really. I actually wouldn't mind having her around, I'm sure she and I would get along splendidly. Hmmmm...

[An instantaneous thought, one that most people would just dismiss out of hand as something silly, something not worth pursuing. What if.]

Though, after talking to her all night, I think she'd really get along with my squire more than anyone. They have the same humor, though Luke does tend to take things a little more seriously. Her lightheartedness would be a good shake up for him, haha.

[As soon as the words are out of his mouth, he's decided. Yep. This is perfect.]
