It is very good that Wysteria is summoning the appropriate level of interest. Ellis isn't sure he could manage it if the task of drumming up the right amount of curiosity fell solely to him.
The windows, coated with a substance Ellis has no frame of reference for, are a near constant reminder of how high in the air they are. The room itself is of a kin to an Orlesian estate or a Hightown manner. Inherently different in design, but the projection of wealth is the same. Add in the stock of sleek decor and unfamiliar objects and disembodied voice—
Wysteria keeps hold of his arm, and Ellis leans into her by degrees, silently listening to the exchange of questions. At some point, the click of bottle and glug of liquid into a cup returns his attention entirely to Tony.
Maybe his expression is a little imploring, a little expectant. They both know Wysteria could quiz this disembodied voice until the sun goes down.
