Taking another long draw from his cigarette, he sighed as he watched her, flicking a fair bit of ash from the tip of the cigarette as he kept taking the occasional drag, quickly wearing it down. Standing there, he listened quietly to what she was saying, he found himself somewhat taken aback by her words, he immensely appreciated what she was trying to do, but it felt odd to him, why was she so insistent on helping him, and so seemingly trusting of him, after all, they had not known each other for a particularly long period of time. 

Turning his gaze over toward her, he watched as she began to show him the faded scars which dotted her skin. Watching her as she moved closer, he reached out and gently wrapped his arms back around her, hugging her back and holding the woman close as he sighed. He was no longer shaking, it seems her words, the cigarette or both had done their purpose and helped him relax somewhat. However, now his expression betrayed something like confusion as he pulled back, looking down at her.

William paused as the slap came, he hadn't exactly expected that, and while it hadn't exactly hurt a great deal, it was the fact she had done so at all which caught him off guard, looking down at her with the same stunned expression, he listened to her words, eventually his expression changing as well. He was clearly not as hurt as she seemed to be, but he certainly seemed to be insulted as she spoke, the venom from her lips seeming to at least strike one nerve as he didn't seem particularly smug or amused by the conversation any more. Moving after her as she spoke, he was of course, confident not to let her have the last word, he himself not seeming to much care for how loud they were being, or how much of a scene they made.

[b][color=FFE2AA]"You would have a much better time of this all if you'd stop lying to yourself, Vera. I might be a habitual liar but at the very least that's given me some damn foresight to know lying when I see it, and it's all over your damn face! Oh believe me, I get it, the 'ghastly' American, all that could ever be on his mind is how many women he's captured the hearts of, and how many more he can steal away, god, a gorgeous, intelligent noble woman would just be the greatest conquest he could dare achieve!"[/color][/b] It was, at this point, that William seemed to be getting slightly off-topic. [b][color=FFE2AA]"How could he ever hold a legitimate interest in me, a lowly, beautiful, smart, charming woman such as myself, poor Vera Munn!"[/color][/b] He continued again, before it seemed to dawn on him what exactly he was saying, and he moved quickly to deflect his own comments. [b][color=FFE2AA]"Maybe I should go speak to 'Lord-Captain' Peter, eh? He seems a might interested, after all, maybe his is [i]legitimate.[/i]"[/color][/b]
