As Robert rebuttals her words, as he begins talking about Ivy, her facial features noticeably begin to soften almost as if unwillingly. Taking a moment to think about what his words carried, beginning to pace once more in that matter that she seems to do when she is conflicted over something.
What did it all boil down to? Robert actually did have a valid point. However through observations before, this man almost never 'cared' about someone unless he could get something out of it himself. Putting use of her talents however? She liked to think herself as quite proficient in being able to figure out peoples motives, however this specific Frenchman, as well as one other in this very Freeport have been the 'only' people who have ever evaded her solid confidence.
Finally coming to a conclusion internally, she turns to face Robert, crossing her arms slowly.
"If it's for her.." Going quiet for a moment before repeating it, as if she needs to convince herself. "If it's for her.. Please allow me to rejoin the Commonwealth. I cannot promise a constant presence until I deal with things elsewhere, although I indeed believe we both can gain from a relationship."
Going quiet for a moment, organizing what she wants to say next in her head.
"Although I will add on, that I despise relationships that feel forced, especially the ones which are merely for the benefit of both sides. Although I suppose I don't need to be very worried, seeing that equality does exist internally of your Commonwealth, despite it being pretty much non-existent outside. Of course, there is always images to upkeep."
