[ She merely nods, before waiting for the server to leave once he drops off her wine. She can appreciate wishing to remain at home - even if 'home' wasn't something she'd found in a long time. ]
Start looking into disguises now. The sooner you do, the sooner you can adapt to whatever persona goes with the new appearance you set. Never taking the exact same routes home may also help. [her smile is thin] Delta is more resilient than he seems.
So much to look into... [Not that he's complaining, mind, but things were certainly simpler before all of this. But if he goes a different route for jobs, he might not get the same opportunities.] When I start settling everything, I'll let you all know what I'm doing. In case a strange face is at the door or it seems I'm acting particularly out of character. I really ought to start being more careful--now there's a phrase I never thought I'd utter. Delta might be resilient, but that's no reason to do something stupid and put him in danger.
If you need help with anything, just let me know. If need be, we can decide on some key coded phrases for use depending on the situation.
In a place like this, I don't think it's possible to find any occasion where being more careful isn't a requirement. [a small sigh, before she sips her wine] And it's not you I'd worry about doing something stupid. [...that's a little mean. but still truthful. she rolls one of her shoulders]
And not a word about that so-called weather change outside either from Bifrons. [topic change? topic change!!] I'm still not sure I believe them about that.
[A topic change before he ever has the chance to actually bring up York and go pet the trunk of the elephant crowding the room? Probably a good idea.] If it isn't true, then I'm not sure what's happened to make them want to delay our excursion. And they're hardly going to tell us if they're already not being upfront about it. But we don't know what the weather patterns out there are like; it could be entirely possible that it's too dangerous to go.
[best and necessary topic change, lets be real here.]
True. They may actually be telling the truth. [a faint sigh] I'm not entirely sure how much of my reaction to them is overreaction, or legitimate wariness. What they're not telling us is doing more harm than good.
