For a moment, she is lost in them even as he says her name in that amused way he does, when she's being tiresome and just about to cross the line but he's tolerating it for now. But when she truly hears what he's said, she lets it sink in. In her position, there are very few that could say what he did and mean it. Not even her brother could say such a thing. It mattered to everyone around her, even herself.
The world would change around them for so many reasons if it were to ever come true and with rumblings of strife and unrest, who knows if it might... She does not think of what she will have to do, how she would need to find an advantageous husband or how she might need to produce a few heirs... She thinks only of how the world would be nothing but chaos and she'd need him by her side for more than just protection.
It's a thought that she's never had before and it makes her see him in a different light. She hides it well, she smiles at him, her tone suddenly teasing and playful as she takes a step forward --"Are you sure? It would mean I could send away all distractions. Keep anyone from entering my chambers..."
