Allison snorted her amusement. The man was about as forthright as James and she appreciated it much more than fake courtesies and smiles. She liked Healer Nott but she knew she treated him respectfully and didn't waste his time or cause more hassle for him. The boys- Not so much.
"I spend my working life cutting through the bullshit so that's fine by me. I can deal with that better than falsity," she said with a small smile. "You'll find that I'm much better behaved than the boys and as long as you explain the why before - if you can - then I'll behave accordingly. I just like to know what's going on if I can because as you said, some of this is terrifying."
She looked up at him. "Do you need anything from me right now?" she asked.
