[What a wonderful idea he had- and honestly, her ego was in need of a bit of mature treatment after others gifting her things that made her feel childish.
In fact, the pliers she moves to attach to the ring at the end of the chatelaine she wore around her waist, letting them join a small knife, a potion, a key, and a bizarre compass.]
I am afraid I did not prepare anything for you in turn- you must accept my hospitality instead.
[Julius did notice the change in Sieglinde's place. It's much neater. How long did it even take to clean everything? He's not sure if he wants to know. When he speaks his hands make some gestures. ]
Do you still have the drink you served me from last time? I've grown fond of it.
[Not long at all! ... But, that's only because it was a demon butler doing the cleaning. If not... one shudders to think.
At the question, though, Sieglinde was quick to nod.]
Of course! An ale will chase away the chill as well- do have a seat.
[It is nice. And still nippy out! She's quick to drag the skull-faced canine with her to the kitchen area, soon enough returning with two mugs held oh so carefully as she balances in her mincing gait, passing one to Julius before moving to hop onto her workshop stool.]
[Julius accepts her mug and sits down on a comfortable looking chair. This time he's not afraid of accidentally stepping on something he's supposed to. He looks more relaxed.]
Tell me how have you been doing? Are you well?
[He's mostly asking out concern. This isn't an easy place to be in.]
[Was she well? What a question. Sieglinde took a long sip of her ale, mulling over the question- but in the end, she knew it was a question surely not meant to be...too deep.]
Since Sebastian has arrived, things have been much easier on me.
[Not just because she had someone to pick up after her experiments and make food, but. Also someone to assist her with the delicate task of cleaning and rebinding her feet.]
[At least someone's looking after Sieglinde. She's highly intellectual but it's not bad to have a caretaker around. Thanks for being such a cool bro Sebastian.]
Actually, I've gotten used to hiding from authorities. I'm managing somehow.
[Sieglinde doesn't need to worry about him in case she's overly concerned.]

[Would that be an acceptable exchange?]

She nods an agreement over her mug.]
Though it's a shame one needs to become accustomed to such a thing, I am glad to hear it.

[He's so grateful that he's here speaking with a friend instead of rotting in a prison. Julius's tone implies that he's thankful too.]
I won't give up, Sieglinde. We'll work together and make our own future.
[As corny as it sounds, this is how he honestly feels. He's being more open because he considers Sieglinde a friend.]
