[She can't tell if she's supposed to be feeling pitied by this or not, which does make her itch to fold in for self-protection. How did she end up in this position, again...? Thanks to the goblin curse, it's just another choice for her to, well, "reflect" on. Even if she's still suspicious, on the lookout for patronization, she finally answers honestly.]

I am. I can't afford to lose my scholarship, or it really will've been not worth it.

No one's going to clean the house if I don't get to it, either.

Good night, Scitalis. Rest well.
