Do I look that bad...

[Maybe he should take another moment in the mirror before actually leaving...]

Well, in any event, I believe I did well enough for my first night. There may have been a rough spot or two, bur Celestine is fed, clean, and generally seems like she is generally content enough.

[He looks back at her fondly and gives her nose a gentle poke, which elicits a mildly confused squeak out of her.]

You would let me know if you were not content, would you not?
