Its a matter of how they write it. Honestly, it seems like these conversations could realistically be addressed with a "thank you," and a shy nod. 

RPing is a collaborative medium. And, certainly, outright ignoring the dialogue of others is rude. But we have to consider the interests of others as well. If a player feels like their character wouldn't engage heavily in a certain discussion, and does so respectfully, we ought to respect that. A silver lining in the whole business is that you and SirBeowulf can spark up a conversation of your own.

The reason I brought it up is not to complain, but to discuss and collaborate. I understand the logic, naturally, but just wanted to see if the doors of conversation were open should Catarina have more to say. A conversation may begin with brevity, but like any confrontation, it may also dip into an actual discussion. It's relevant to know intention in a group setting, particularly so I can plan/write accordingly.

That sounds good to me! I'll get a feel for the flow of things once we see your post.
