Aurelia
The polite smile on Ronin's face does seem to say that he's treating her with a bit of distance, which she hardly appreciates considering her current mental state and... well, waned fortitude. All things considered, Aurelia's had a long day, to say the least. Why-
Oh, she realizes, and her brows lift in surprise, I'm an idiot.
And her lips part to clear things up, to remedy the confusion and let him know that it's still her - merely a change of looks. But a mischievous thought, rooted in the way Ronin seems not to fail to awaken something ridiculous in her every time she's ran across him, decides better of that. Maybe she could use a break from grim, dark reality and the all-too-serious facts.
"Oh, don't play dumb," she forces a hurt look on her face, which ain't actually that hard, "you really don't remember me," she tsk's, shaking her head in disappointment, "and we had such a good time, too." Her paler green eyes look him up and down in emphasis. What is that even supposed to mean, Aurelia? Well, whatever. It's out there, and the ball's in his court now so she awaits his move with expectancy.

What is clear is what is gold
You're only human after all
