"Well, you never know when a quality pun can come out of the woodwork."

Is that too far? Whatever, the ring's wooden, she has limited shame and the pun seems to have maybe cheered him a little. She's not even sure that one counts as a pun so much as outright silliness, but she'll take it.

Still, the shift in mood worries at her, gaze shifting past Anders to Adelaide before she refocuses. Maybe she's just thinking too much. "Do you know anything about magic that deals with plants? I've seen it before back home but usually it was... different."
