Chris follows his direction and goes into the living area. She's watching as he tends to the fire, unsure of what he'll tell her. She could hardly miss how his hands trembled after the mention of the baker's boy.
What he signs to her, though, she could not have expected. Her eyes go wide, hands rising to momentarily cover her mouth.
And then her eyes narrow a little, suspicious. She signs, |How can you be so sure I'm dead? You never asked my name. It's Chrysanthi, by the way!|
(She finger-spells it out quickly, the sign for 'flower' that she usually adds flashed a bit sloppily, almost an afterthought.)
|Even that silly tiefling Geoff would not pull such a cruel joke!|
