i didn't see a reason to refuse.
i'm quite fond of Silver, and i enjoy spending time with him
he's the first person to ask me out so plainly as well...
so perhaps i simply want to try this sort of thing out with someone i know i can trust

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . ]

So you're telling me that it's a convenient thing?

No, that's too harsh - it's actually a good thing, at your age, to be aware of what you have and haven't tried and to try new things. I'm actually relieved to hear that.

[elevelvetor]

[ ...ah, good, she isn't mad. ]

thank you.
...i don't wish to hurt him though, and i'll do my best to make certain of that

[matchbreaker]

I know! You're a good girl, I can tell!

I've been more worried he would hurt you, honestly. I'm actually a little more concerned about *that* now.

[elevelvetor]

[ ......what an overwhelming fuss. ]

there's nothing Silver could do that would hurt me, Ms. Marker
thank you for the concern

[matchbreaker]

[ That's not true. Or if it is, then this relationship...

... Well, she shouldn't meddle. ]

Well, I'm always here for you, of course. Which I know is a bit presumptuous but I want you to be good to my boy and I'll be good to you.

[ If the ending to that sentence is "as shallow as puddle in summer" then

Just A Bit. It helps that Elizabeth's the type to let things roll off her back and pass through without a care, for better or for worse. ]

i know
...thank you
i'm unused to people fussing so thoroughly over me, so i admit, i find it quite overwhelming

[matchbreaker]

I don't know how to stop doing that. I'm sure Silver's campaigned about that trait of mine many times before now.

[elevelvetor]

it's simply part of who you are, Ms. Marker
i'm the one who'll have to get used to it; you needn't change yourself

[matchbreaker]

Well, that's reassuring, but still!

Can I expect you on the 24th?

[elevelvetor]

you can

[matchbreaker]

Good! I'll be expecting you then but hopefully I'll see you before then
