"No." Confidently said; in some ways, her disinterest in her lady's maid has served her well.
Ever eager to distinguish herself, Yva is diligent in attending to whatever request is made of her - and Yva is Orlesian, before all else. The games of status she played in the Gallows won't serve her if she doesn't want the kitchen to quiet when she enters it; she has cultivated gratitude and trust, ensuring Mistress Baudin's lessons are learned and taking no credit for it.
The information she's passed to her mistress has been good, and GwenaΓ«lle trusts it this time as well.
"His household is shut up like a puzzlebox. You hardly see anyone except who he has attend him, and he's as much a social butterfly as I am. But he liked that I was uncomfortable."
A frank, matter of fact assessment. It can't have been blatant; no rumors of sadism dog the man's heels. GwenaΓ«lle, though - she prefers to be ignored, and has never sat high enough in Orlesian ranks to habitually expect otherwise. She's too familiar with what the attention can mean to wish it, and she's seen that look too many times to mistake it now.
