[The difference really is like night and day..... It's hard to believe this casual shopper is the same person he'd seen crying on the ground not even an hour ago. Then again, to be fair, his own demeanor has changed as well--now that he's not trying to be authoritative and shepherd someone away from a murder scene, he's actually softened considerably, willing to browse with quiet wonder himself. If a deserted marketplace like this had existed in London, he and Charles would have been so much better off. Maybe they could have even.....
.....No, now's not the time to think stupid thoughts about stupid dreams that can't come true. Charles is gone. Nothing can or will ever change that.
It puts a bit of a damper on his amazement, even as he accepts the hand basket and follows without even so much as a protest. His egg is safe in his bag, after all, it isn't like he doesn't have a free hand.]
As long as it's free, does the quality even matter that much? What are you making, anyway?
