That he surely was. Erato laughed a little, amused at Asterion's blunt honesty, because actually it was just adorable.
Just then there was a jaunty whistled tune approaching from outside and a moment later the church door was bumped open and Will Scarlet strode through, bringing his tune to a close. "Oi-oi lads! Oh, and lady, excuse me!" He came up and held his hand out to Erato, and when she took it he bowed over it with a flourish, making her laugh again. Then he gave Asterion a broad smile and held his hand out for a shake. "Nice to see you again, mate. You're here for the meeting, right? Sorry I'm late, did I miss anything?" He turned to smile at Elijah too, although he'd already seen him that morning so it was less of a greeting for him.
