It was obvious the spirit was eager to hear more, but she seemed to understand his reluctance to speak openly in front of her roommate. An unknown quantity, even if he'd served the Exchange well so far. As she bid him follow, Theo paused for a moment to watch her go before he walked after her. He caught her gesture, spotting the slippers and making the guess that she intended to go somewhere he'd need them. A balcony, maybe?
Theo hooked his fingers in the tongue of a pair that looked large enough for him and dropped them on the floor to slip them on. She'd paused at the top of the stairs, and as Theo stepped up to join her, he took in her concerned appearance, the obvious nerves. He was quite used to that sort of reaction to his appearance, even when he was invited.
“Need a hand?” he murmured, nodding to the door handle. He knew she could pass through it, or most spirits could, but he’d caught on that she was rather intent on leading him around rather than expecting him to follow.
