Even if it's not what he wants?

[allformrt.livejournal.com]

Wouldn' stay 'ere if he wasn't wanting for some good soul t'look after 'im. Glad 'e does, o' course, but 'e wouldn't if 'e didn't want to.

[threadedfate.livejournal.com]

Mm, d'you wish it was more than just looking after he wanted?

[allformrt.livejournal.com]

I don't worry m'self about that. 'E just needs 'is time. Simple as that.

[threadedfate.livejournal.com]

Nothing is that simple.

Is it Mr. Todd you're talking about, ma'am?

[allformrt.livejournal.com]

That it is, sir. You know 'im? Oh, you must be that sailor 'e talked about.

You look half-starved, love. Let me get you a pie.

[iwillstealyou.livejournal.com]

He's spoken of me? [a faint blush and a smile] He's a very kind man, Mr. Todd is.

Oh -- no, thank you, I don't want to trouble you.

[allformrt.livejournal.com]

Of course, dear. *won't mention that it's only been in passing* 'E is, love, 'e is.

Come now. Won't cost you a penny. I insist, dear. They're not what you've 'eard 'round, if that's worrying you. Had a... change to the recipe.

That is very kind of you to look after someone!

[allformrt.livejournal.com]

'E wants looking after, and I think I do a right job of it.

[notsodistressed.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sure you must! If I may ask- who are you caring for?

[allformrt.livejournal.com]

Mr. Todd, a right gentleman. Just returned from a voyage without a place t'go.
