"Nonsense, darling. When a woman has a suitor, there is always a time and place to wear something pretty." It doesn't have to be a ball gown, but something which flatters her figure is always a good choice. "Even if it is a quiet dinner alone or for a stroll outdoors picking flowers, it wouldn't be a waste."

Granted, not everyone can go charging into battle in silks and jewels and pull it off like Vivienne manages to. But then, she wouldn't much like it if everyone were in the first place.

"Besides, we're so often out fighting, little moments of peace and quiet should be observed with something remarkable, don't you think?" This from the woman who would very much like to be further north at the moment stealing a moment of calm in the arms of her beloved. Even non-violent business is business and she cannot justify the detour north, no matter how she aches to do so.
