i don't mind compassion
"It really is.." He knows she's younger than he is, or at least he thinks she is. Not sure how much but.. Surely she's dealt with this less than him. And it's not like a brothel is the most well fortified place in the world. It can clearly stand up to the storms but doesn't mean it's a fortress. Or something. He gets it. He gives her a little, crooked grin as he takes the basket.
"Wow.. Uh. Remind me to not let you go to the wilds again? Yeah?" As if he has any control over it. "So uh. What's next on the list? I don't normally do this shit for free so you know.. Take advantage of my kindness." Not that he really expects anyone to pay this time of the year. It feels like bad taboo to make someone pay him for help. They usually do, in some small way, food or whatever, and that's enough for him. Not sure what she could give him. A free night maybe? He kind of wants to tease her about it but they're not friends and he's no longer paying her to be friendly.
