[ Sebastian makes a brief, noncommittal noise, and it's clear that he's thinking more on that subject. It's probably no surprise even to Sieglinde, since Sebastian is exceptionally cautious, and that's not something he tries to obscure when he's playing at being the butler.

[ Sebastian places a hand on her shoulder that's likely warm and comforting in its weight. ]
