[ He's so sure that the next time he shows his face to her in one of her not-so-composed moments, she would surely, really, get mad at him and whatever had blossomed of their relationship - whatever inkling of civil friendliness they'd finally gotten - would die right there.

So he's... wondering whether he should say anything when-- ]

Vii!

[ -- his Eevee, as tsun as Franziska herself can be, shoves her way onto his lap in a forceful request for headpatting, sees Franziska's broadcast, and smacks the respond button before her trainer can say anything. :|a So there is one tsun Eevee and a flustered Miles appearing on Franziska's screen. ]

[by now, however, she's composed herself a little -- though it does not mean, in any way, that she is accepting of the situation.
