What is he doing? Why doesn't he just admit it and tell him how upset it made him, how angry? Why is he going to make her admit it? Her impatient anxiety boiling under the surface takes the opportunity of her ruined plan of just how this would go to bubble up in the form of staring in disbelief at Harrowheart for a half minute. As soon as she realises herself, she looks down at her feet, takes a deep breath and flattens out her skirt. Focus, Isidor. This isn't any worse than delivering a report to the Archon. It can't be.

Folding her hands again, she breathes deeply and purses her lips before speaking slowly and calmly. "I think he told you what happened. I think he told you about a matter that was raised in conversation and became a point of contention between us. I think he told you how I acted in relation to this matter, and that it was not... appropriately respectful to you."
