Well. Yes, at least she's wearing something as opposed to nothing, but when he notices her there -- and it takes him a moment to notice, like he's acting on some kind of delay -- he blushes and turns his eyes away. (Yes, really.) As if he's not already seen her naked, but -- that's different, she was underwater at the time. ... Times.

Baedal is really weird.

He doesn't say anything for a bit, and when he does, it's by signing -- his gestures hesitant and awkward the way everyone is when they're learning a new language. Hello, Ilde.

He knows she knows -- he remembers one of the last times they spoke, she signed at him from underwater. He's sort of curious how Baedal's translation effect applies to sign language.
