[@agentmanatee], PFC Rose is probably [i]mildly[/I] amused by his constant need to change her attitude.  In such a case, where he is persistent to make her cheer up, she probably views his attentions as some sort of friendship, albeit, she doesn't let people close to her.  Considering she was homeschooled, she misses many social queues, and his antsy behavior is just part of his personality with which she has to deal.  I didn't mention that her family visited one of the Eastern Orthodox Monasteries in Evoria at least once or twice a year (for usually Confessional reasons); the impressions left on her from the visits have made her quite a solemn human being and widely acceptable to different personality types.
