If I found it troublesome, I would not have made offer.
[That's the simple version of it. Caim is, in truth, in need of something to distract him from his thoughts. There's plenty going on at hand that he doesn't know how to work through and it's all very complicated for him. So perhaps Sen is being used as a means of escape. It's only one part of the equation, however. He is, after all, genuinely curious about her, even if he might never claim as much.
Her wording, however, catches him a little off guard. The way she puts it. 'Ever grateful.' So polite. Makes him think of older days at court with tittering girls and awkward happenstance he'd meant to avoid to the best of his ability. He can't help but be slightly amused at the recollection, though it shows in his expression for a moment and one alone before he's returned to whatever stone he's become.]
Consider it an accord, then. I have time and the will to see it happen.
