At the same time, not everyone in Milliways knows how to guard their thoughts - or even that there would be reason to. A heady mix of elation and dread - or at least anticipation - might lead Charles' attention to a girl in the rafters. She's maybe eighteen, wearing all black, and very much keeping an eye out for someone (that's where the anticipation comes in).
"Rosa. And I like to think I will, yes." She prefers not to think about just how much she's following in her mother's footsteps. In that regard, she's just glad there was a Guild somewhere other than Bistort by the time she took an interest.

It's not that her dad wasn't around, it's just that he was drunk nearly as long as Rosa can remember.
