"Everyone says so, but sometimes good things happen when I get lost. Emrys has a lovely voice," Alice mused, standing and following them inside from a proper distance. If she hadn't wandered, she wouldn't have had the chance to meet the other slave, and that would've just been beyond unfortunate. "B-but thank you, Master For- Far- I'm sorry, sir. Your name was so pretty too." How sad.
Mir went to call her mistress, and Alice wasn't certain what to do. She thought initially to help Emrys with the dishes, but that might have been seen as invasive of another's task. By the time she resigned herself to ask if the boy needed help, he was already finished. And he looked distressed.
Alice moved to hug Emrys. It was a spontaneous action, but she'd seen other people do it numerous times to comfort another when they were sad. It was a friendly hug, after all, so it would probably be alright. "It's okay. Whatever it is, it'll get better." He'd mentioned that Mir had punished him. She'd always thought the man would be a kind master, so she was certain that her words were the truth of it.
