[Rilan's diplomatic explanation brings a similarly diplomatic response from Sola. While he intends to do his best to become a friend and Ally to Sola, and feels he's made some headway to opening lines of communication and the idea that trust could be between them, it feels safe to sometimes hide behind what is both plain speaking and still carefully phrased.
He does not want to get into fussing and word wrangling on the first meeting with his intended, and he is grateful for her political instincts that allow them both to sidestep that.]
I appreciate that, Sola, and have little doubt that I will enjoy and appreciate being here. On this planet, and with you.
[He doesn't like to lean hard on wording and phrasing like this, finding it elegant but a little stiff for his tastes in the long-term. He picks up his cup to take another sip, finds it empty, and laughs a little at himself as he shows it to her.]
I was more absorbed in our conversation than I realized. I think I'll take it as a good sign for the future.
