So he's smiling when enters the room, nodding to some of staff who greet him as he enters. It's a pleasant atmosphere that belies what he knows of the world beyond the walls and the rising number of aggressive monsters.
He smiles at Jasper as he catches his eye, peering in close to see Celestine burbling at the enthusiastic but relatively quiet interaction. Heavens, she seemed to deal with crowd better than either of them.
Of course, she seems to be a little charmer. Perhaps that's just to be expected.]
