When he was assured that he wasn't going to frighten anyone, Oliver lowered his hands, an easy smile coming to her lips as she moved closer, nodding his head towards her. But then her words faltered, and he found himself getting a good look at the woman he would be working with tonight. That greeting was not expected, nor was the only fable she could be.
"Lady Mina," Oliver said softly, staying where he was for the longest moment. ONce he had settled, realisation no longer keeping him so still, his gaze swept this way and that, instantly on guard for fear of that monster hiding in the shadows. But nothing came, and there was only peace for the moment. "It's okay," Oliver said after a moment, taking her hand in his own, squeezing firmly before releasing, holding on for only as long as was polite.
"Oliver. And... I believe you're right. It's a pleasure, Helena, to meet you as we normally are."
