[Veth visibly jolts when he mentions the word "goblin", starts describing Nott, and... oh, this was such a bad idea, why did she think this was a good idea, what is she doing. There's no way she can keep up this charade.

She kind of self-consciously looks away from him, fiddling with her braids.]

Umm... I normally don't like being noticed too much.

[Which is... true! She's acting more confident now than she ever did in her previous life, but Veth was always more keen on slipping around unnoticed. Less chance of being insulted or worse that way.]

Today is... a special case. And you're much easier to notice, you're so colorful.
