Oh.
[He thinks maybe he understands now, and he glances at the tables.]
You'd prefer to do, to offer writing? I'd not thought of that, but there likely is need.
[There's a short pause as he looks around at the staff, trying to see who is here. They're all busy at the moment. He'll have to do the organizing.]
What would you require? Two chairs and a writing surface, at least, and...?

[He snickers and there's background noise as he activates it to listen to the current messages.]
Maybe I was busy talking with someone, this doctor named Sidony, you might have heard of--
[Anders breaks off as Byerly gets to the 'good' part.]
Him? Kind?

I don't know any doctors, but I do know a surgeon.
[ Ha ha. But, well - ]
He is to me. You know that.

I didn't know that, no. What I've seen of him...
[There'd been one time he'd seen some sort of actual decency from the guy. The rest had lead him to think that glimmer was either fake or nearly nonexistent.]
You're certain it's real? His kindness to you? That it's not some sort of show? If you're sure I'll trust you on it. But marrying into a noble family is something that someone who seems so focused on appearances might pretend nearly anything for.

I trust him with my life and everything else, Anders.
[There's a few moments of silence before he exhales.]
I'll say no more on it, then.
[But if Byerly ever hurts her, Anders is damn well going to help get rid of his body.]

You matter to me, and I'd prefer to be here for you than insist on my admittedly biased opinions.
Thank you, Anders. I appreciate you doing this for me.
[If that is what he prefers to belief, then certainly. Let that be her intention.]
That would be plenty to get started with, serah. And to be candid, I could work even without the table. I have a traveling writing desk that I might set on my knees if there is no other flat surface to be found.
