[She doesn't answer immediately, looking away to try to think. She's covered everything she'd rehearsed (or tried to rehearse) telling him already, the best she could. This is a lot of pressure, forcing her to decide if there's anything else she wants to talk about!
But if there is, again, it can wait. She hasn't told him everything she's wanted to tell him (because now that he's here, it's much more difficult to actually try asking him on a date, this is too soon, the mood is all wrong, etc), so her time here it is!]
I... arrived here just over one month ago. [Thirty-seven days, to be exact, not that she's been counting or anything.] CERES gave me a job working at the casino, which is... not difficult work. More importantly, I have been working to investigate CERES themselves. As an organization, I... do not think they are as helpful and honest as they would like us to think they are. To that end, there's a... certain samurai that I have allied with.
Has anyone informed you of the glitches that can plague this city--?
[Oh, no, the catch to her voice suggests that there's something else that she meant to end that sentence with. Like a specific title or something? That's something she meant to bring up, but now isn't sure that it's the right time. Hopefully he takes the hard set of her lips to mean that she's just focusing intently on giving him this information, instead of sudden Concern about calling or not calling him young master.]
