A last time here a boyish grin appears on Chris' face. 'Thank you, Mr. Ankers. Your words are most appreciated, and let me say, we all have our talents, one develops sooner than the other.' Not everyone is blessed with a pretty face a blond hair, but no one would hear Chris complain. He has seen worse.
'A private setting, Miss Maskelyne?' This is the moment where Chris permanently takes back all of his ill thoughts regarding she who once was a Harpy. 'Let's say we may be glad that you returned to Sacramento.'
When she bows, so does Chris. 'My Lady.' He bows deeply, as one did in older times. In here it would look like irony, but to an Elder it could be a reminder to her position in the First Estate.
