"Sister, you seem to have been correct about our little Tristesse."
"Why, of course, Brother. Who would know her better than I?"
"A fine point. I suppose it's alright, then. As long as she continues to fulfill her duties."
"No doubt in my mind."
"Should we tell her, then? That it's alright?"
"We should say nothing. I would like to see how she performs under this pressure."
"Ha! Now it is you who has become the curious one."
"Is curiosity not the driving force of all that we do?"
"Hm. Indeed, I suppose that is true, Sister."
