What? No. I know what I want.
[He seems almost confused by the question-- what do you think this is, anyway?-- and as soon as Tertia's ready, he makes his way along again.]
If you see anything you like, call it out, [he continues,] and I'll know if you're being a coward and not saying anything, so don't try that.

[HEH]
Yeah, you know. Not speaking up because you don't want to be a bother.

That's -
[ She goes a little pink - ]
That's not being a coward. That's being - polite.

Well, [he sniffs,] politeness would work against our intentions here. [His intentions, maybe, but she
did
agree to come along with him.]
If nothing else, it's practice saying what you like. What you want.

I say what I want.

[ Huff! ]
Like I
want
you to not look so smug about everything.
[ Even a mild bit of meanness like that gets a little apologetic wrinkle of her nose. She's not great at sass. ]

[His smirk falters, but only fleetingly. It's part of the game.]
What's your favorite color? [He tosses his hair, looking around them at the stalls.]

Um - What's yours?

I think... plum, [Bene decides, but isn't distracted for long.]
But I asked you first.

Are you asking me? [He snorts.]
Blue like the sky on a clear day? Or like that tarp over there? Or neither?

Umm...
[ She tugs self-consciously at a lock of her hair and confesses - ]
I...don't know. I haven't really thought about it before. How do you decide? I'm sure that question sounds stupid.

[How
does
one decide? It's a fair question, and Benedict pauses to consider it.]
It's like... well, it's...
[He actually stops walking, tapping his chin in thought as he turns to Tertia.]
...well how do you know what tastes and smells you like? You just do.

[ She thinks about that a moment. ]
Well - but there are certain tastes and certain smells that are comforting. Or disgusting. I don't know if you could say that about colors.

You can absolutely say that about colors.
[He gestures to another stall, hung with garish materials of the like used for tablecloths and curtains.]
That mauve, that’s disgusting. It makes one sick to look at.
