That's what I'm good at. [Hoping, he means. Although he's good at being foolish, too.] If it all goes south, we'll figure something out, but it's best to leave well enough alone for now. Be there for Agnes if we can, keep her as safe as possible, help her deal with the attention.
[Since they're both familiar with it. Not that either of them have... coped well, exactly, but they're doing their best.]
( she doesn't argue it, refilling her glass but for a moment silently sitting with it. he's given her a lot to think about and she does need to. with how much she cares for agnes can she watch? but could she lose her? and how terribly would it feel if she didn't help her against elias even in some small way? she almost prefers when things were simpler unattached-- but she'd felt so alone then, something she didn't realise how terrible it was until someone had cared for her )
