Cosette is, for lack of better words, rather upset and confused, and so, upon being delivered back to her room by Combeferre, will be found seated on a bed, in confused tears. With the door halfway open, she can be seen leafing through a Bible, apparently searching for something, and her sniffles can most likely be heard down the hall. She is, of

Cosette? What's wrong?

[la_baronne]

*oh dear. doesn't want to make him upset* Er... nothing. Nothing precisely. Just a... bit of confusion. *dabs at her eyes with a handkerchief*

[pure_to_shyness]

*Takes her hand, very gently.* Might I ask what caused the confusion, or would it be too distressing for you to say?

[la_baronne]

*moves over a bit, to give him room to sit if he so desires* I would tell you anything if you asked it of me.

[pure_to_shyness]

*Sits down beside her, far enough away so that hopefully she won’t feel crowded.* Very well, then. What did happen?

[la_baronne]

Well... I thought it would be only polite to pay your friends a visit. So I did. And then.... well, something terribly confusing happened! Your friend, M. Jehan, said he had.... well, he had kissed another of your friends! *wibbles in confusion*

[pure_to_shyness]

...Oh. *Oh dear, now Marius is confused.* Why would he do that?

[la_baronne]

I've no idea! And then they said love was not just between men and women, and I was so terribly confused, and the next thing I knew, I was on the ground, and they told me I'd fainted.

[pure_to_shyness]

Oh. Then it must've been something related to fraternity. Revolutionaries find that sort of thing terribly important. *pets her arm reassuringly*

[la_baronne]

Do you suppose? Perhaps I have overreacted? Oh, how terribly embarassing. I hope they do not think me horrid.

[pure_to_shyness]

I suppose it must've been. But you couldn't have known, so I doubt they will think badly of you.

[la_baronne]

*moves over a bit closer in order to lay her head on his shoulder* I certainly hope they do not. And, perhaps they don't. After all, M. Combeferre brought me flowers.

[pure_to_shyness]

*puts an arm around her* How lovely. ^_^

[la_baronne]

*snuggles a bit* Oh yes. It was so terribly kind of him to come in and check on me. *and laughs slightly* Do you know, they were all rather worried that you would be upset with them for making me faint?

[pure_to_shyness]

*Eee, snuggling. Marius always approves of snuggling.* I just might be. >. They did? How odd.

[la_baronne]

*snuggling is just wonderful ^_^* It was silly of them. I do not believe you could be angry with anyone for such a silly reason.
