"Once you have the basics down, it's pretty intuitive," Adia says. "But feel free to ask me anytime. Or, yeah, someone at the front desk. I'm sure they're used to those sorts of questions." How on earth could you stay in business in the Nexus otherwise?

The compliment, coming out of nowhere from Adia's perspective, makes her blush. She'd accept it without argument, but not at the cost of Paladin putting herself down. "Don't be jealous, you have a nice smile, too." If she knew that Paladin saw herself as plain, she'd protest that, too. "I think everyone looks better when they smile."
