Alisaie shoots a coy look back, chuckling softly. "Because it wasn't that long ago that you would have asked for aether in return," she says with a half shrug. "So, at the risk of seeming like I'm fishing for compliments... why did you?"

Zero awkwardly glanced away, tipping the hat further down her face. "...Perhaps last time you gave me aether, you gave too much and I am simply paying it back...." She paused.

"...But perhaps there is... value in...helping... allies. Simply because that is how... unspoken social contracts work."

Alisaie smiles brightly, and one might mistake her look for smugness - but there's a degree of fondness in her eyes, as well. She glances away, trying not to make either of them feel any more awkward. "Allies," she repeats with a soft chuckle, "Or, you know... I like to think we're friends. Maybe."

"Friends...?" She tilted her head to one side. "You would... call me such?"

Now it was her turn to duck her head away, but she had no hat to hide her flustered expression. "Well, I don't see why not," she mumbled, cheeks flushing pink. "Jullus certainly considers you a friend, and I consider him one, so we're at least friends by association. But... I do enjoy your company."

The smallest of smiles, brief as it was.

"I enjoy yours, as well. You are a good... friend. I am glad that I can call you such."
