Not that I can really blame her for that - whatever Trace might have been like when she first met him years ago, it'd definitely be hard to get past the past few years of literally-hitler-omnicidal-maniac. It's easy to forget that, however prematurely hardened and cynical he'd become due to his experiences, he's still a quite young man. She'll have to completely scrub her mental image of him and think back to the awkward young 'templar boy' she knew when he was trying to court Saria, way back when, and the sheer magnitude of the difference isn't going to make that easy.

On a somewhat related note, embarrassed/shocked Rose is totally adorable. (I mean, she's adorable pretty much no matter what, but still.) She just can't restrain her curiosity, yet even with Trace's obvious current complete disregard for formality the habit of being all prim and proper is so ingrained that she can barely get the question out. It's so improper, so forward and familiar, a thing for a servant to ask a master. Let alone this specific question to this *particular* human master, coming from a keidran! (That wouldn't have been a... safe thing for her to say to evil!Trace.) It's *so* cute. :heart:

It's only my own personal impression, of course, but to me Rose's current detached, controlled, over-formal persona somewhat feels like a defense mechanism, a reaction to the hardships and tense situations of her life in evil!Trace's world - a defensive shell around the warm, lively personality we'd met before. This stammering, blushing, embarrassed question feels to me like a glimpse of Rose the *person*, peeking out from behind the mask of Rose the seneschal, scarcely daring to wonder if the world might really have changed after so long. It makes me want to reach right into the screen, pull her out, and give her a hug.

(On a more mundane note, the glasses are a nice touch. Of course a pair of spectacles made for a keidran wouldn't have bent ends - they can't hook over her ears like they would for a human, so instead they just rest on the sides of her head, held in place by her cheek-floof, as we can see now that she's knocked them off her face in her surprise. :grin:)
Rose wouldn't react differently of it if Trace had asked to her : "- Can i brush your tail ?"

LTL-FTP here.

What if Trace had told Rose that he planned to marry her when he returned from his journey?

Hahahah, well *there's* a strange mental image for ya. Unlikely as it may be, not gonna be able to get that one out of my head for a while. Though if Trace doesn't want the job, I'm sure we can find someone else for her. :wink:

I was expecting to see Rose's hair frizz out after she heard the news.

:trace: :flora:
Roselyn is far too refined and genteel for such shenanigans, particularly in the presence of the lord of the house. Kat, Nat, or Keith on the other hand would almost certainly deploy the Poofy and/or Katana Tail upon witnessing this. :shock:
She could still have the Poofy Tail, we can't see her tail in the last couple of panels after all. Wouldn't be surprised if she did, actually - refined she may be, but that only adds to her shock in this case. :grin:

That's... not exactly lighthearted. And depending on the context, not really humorous either. You're the one that needs to go sit in the corner.

Yeah, I foresee Rose going into a dead faint from severe shock once she hears that.

I have been wondering what Rose's stance on old Trace was. It's easy to assume she hates him as the architect of her species' genocide, but it's difficult to live with a person for years and despise them, especially given the apparent autonomy and freedom Rose enjoys on the estate. She doesn't appear to have a collar. It's possible now that she's learned old Trace is gone that she will want him back for her own reasons.

I took something that is most likely a important facet of the series, and made a lewd joke about it. Cause for all we know Saria was kinky.

I did not imply non-consensual usage of the sex dungeon

With just a few words he completely destroyed Rose's expectations of him...

I expect she's going to be completely speechless as wolf.exe reboots... with 90% of the files marked as needing updates.

And maybe made an enemy of her, but meanwhile it sure is great to see lil' Miss Know-it-all discombobulated.

Will she faint when she find out that Trace is the one that knocker Flora up... or start working on her Letter of Reference?
