She and Phyri must have been on the same page, because the bird's next comment had Eva laughing aloud. "No two people can be that pompous." The incredulity to her tone was something she used to hide, but it was in the past now and though she knew Amelia had genuinely had feelings for Mr. Skeeter, she didn't have to hide the distaste as much any longer.
"I should very much like to meet him some day- when I'm sober so I don't embarrass you."
