I don't... really like confrontation. But sometimes you can't run away. You have to stand your ground.

The trick is knowing when to stand and when to save it for another day. Isn't that right, Miss Quinton?

Yes. I just... don't think I'm good at that. Knowing when.

You're young still, and it's the sort of thing that only comes with time. Stay mindful. Be deliberate. And you'll get there eventually.

But what if I have to make decisions now? Some things can't wait forever.

No, they can't. Indecisiveness can be a man's worst enemy. Or a woman's.
Better to act than not act at all. [ A pause, considering. ] Something on your mind, Miss Quinton?

I don't... if Argine hasn't... David proposed.

Of course. [ Nods, understandably, and in a way that makes it unclear if he already knew or not. ] And you don't know what to tell our young David.

No. I don't. I don't... know what he's thinking.

I'm sure there are times when even David doesn't know what David's thinking. What should matter most is what you are thinking, Miss Quinton.

I don't... I never want to hurt him. But... I don't know what he wants and so I don't know the answer. [A pause.] You can call me Pallas, if you want.

[ He dips his head, politely, the vague suggestion of a smile on his face. ] Pallas, alright.
Have you considered simply asking him, Pallas? It doesn't guarantee you a straight answer, but it may get you something.

Yes, but... I worry, if I ask, he'll know how unsure I am. And I don't want to hurt him.

David can weather a little uncertainty. [ Considers this, and then adds, thoughtfully: ] It might be good for him, actually.

[She smiles a little, a fondness to it, but still uncertain. She nods.] Thank you, Alex.

You're more than welcome. [ Lifts a finger, not unkindly, and waves it at her, almost like a teacher who means to impress upon a student the importance of lessons. ] Remember: be deliberate. And don't let David bully you with that smile of his.
