He really wasn't sure what that wide-eyed expression was about that Yotsuyu did. It was almost as if he'd asked her to reveal his age and Hendrik knew damn well that you never asked a lady her age unless you were expecting grief and trouble.

The knight had really just asked her plans simply to be friendly. But with the way that she put it, she made it sound like he was expecting her to go somewhere with him. Wait. He was just simply trying to be polite.

Was there somewhere he could ask her to go? But she didn't have dinner, and he shouldn't interfere with eating. But he stumbled over his words at first.

"I..w..we have not yet journeyed to the temples. But that can wait for another day if that would be better."

For all the world, the knight wished his mind worked quicker sometimes. What he wouldn't give at times for Jasper's quicksilver mind.
