[Ashe was in the same predicament. Sure, he's slept in many different places before with many different people, but he was familiar with them. The last thing he would want to do is be less than a gentleman. He does his best to give a friendly smile even though he was just as nervous.]
M-Married!? [Ashe nearly squeaked as his face heated up.] No! I mean not that I don't want to be married one day, but I haven't met anyone yet. I mean there are a lot of great people I know who I wouldn't mind being married to I just haven't...I'm not a knight yet so I don't think I can get married. Well, not true I am a knight, I just...
[Ashe wanted to hide in his hood after his outburst.] No, I'm not married. Um, are you? If you don't want to tell me that's alright too.
Rosamund is taken aback by the torrent of words, blinking wide. Shit. She really should have phrased herself better.
But also, it's a bit sweet? This is all such well-mannered stammering. And he's a knight, goodness. Just when she thought everyone was far ahead of her times.]
Nooooo, no no no, not married! I'm sorry. I shouldn't have opened with that. I just, uhm. [She waggles her head and her hands.] Wanted to make sure there wasn't going to be someone who'll be mad at you. Not that I plan on anything. Expect. Expect anything.
[Now she's flushing, ugh. Looking anywhere but him!]
We were assigned this! It was completely out of our hands! And it is a strictly professional situation. So. There's no need for us to feel nervous about anything. Because this doesn't mean anything.

[Big smile!
And then silence. She looks to the wall. Then the door. Then at another wall.]
Are you married?
