[There's an awful lot of long pauses before all her replies.]
Because it frightens me, to do something like that in front of a large number of people. Because I've never done this kind of thing before, beyond in front of you. Because I'm afraid I'll like it, yes, and something new will come of that enjoyment.
I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself, and I'm afraid because it's an area I'm very much an amateur in. And I'm afraid because Madam Rosalind Lutece doesn't do things like this.
I sincerely doubt that girl would hold you up for public ridicule. I'm sure you know better than I do that no costume or occasion is likely to change your ducklings' opinion of you. And perhaps Madam Rosalind Lutece doesn't do things like this, but my Rosie can and does anything she sets her mind to, no matter what anyone might say about it.
Be my girl. No one else. Just my Rosie, who can do anything.

If I could take all of that out of your hands, leaving you free of the responsibility, would you want me to?

. . . all right. Though I think you may have to repeat that the day-of.
I'll be home soon. Do you want anything?
no subject
I for one would like that very much, I think.
no subject
[Which, like. There's so many eggs, so she'll be happy if she can find Jello, you know?]
I love you, you know.

[He is ADORABLE.]
I love you too, Rosie-Posie.
