"Fair enough," Daff was pleased to hear Mrs. Swann was doing well these days. Her own contributions aside, Noble had seemed so tense that day that Daff had wondered if everything was alright. None of it was her business anyway. People generally got married and had children if and only when they were ready to. At least she hoped it was that way. "I'm sure it'll come along when the time is right."
Draining the last of her cider, Daff rather thought she probably ought to get back to the chaos outside of the barn to make sure things were still trending in the right direction. Perhaps she would go close down the apples and check in to see if anything else had gone awry this afternoon. Soon enough the events would progress into the barn itself for the dance and she would be clear run off her feet. "Shall we head back outside?" She motioned the wide open barn door on the far side where the sounds of the fair could be heard. Daff was struck again by if things were different how it would be perfectly natural for her to keep Fortitude's company, an easy extension of Noble, but since it wasn't, she probably shouldn't keep him from his sisters for too long.
