In which case I suspect that you will remain in good hands in that regard. There is every chance there will be absolutely nothing to worry about but... Well, sweet as he may have been with you, Victor does strike quite the imposing image when he wishes to.
I daresay though that I think Edward's more pragmatic approach is probably the better one. For people like you and I, it is perhaps more difficult to master our feelings. Whatever they may be for each of us.
Oh, no, of course not! It's just undeniable that Victor does provide a very particular kind of security, but no, there's absolutely nothing to be troubled by.
And it's true, Edward is quite partial to the Down and I can see the practical reasoning on some levels. It's hard to deny that the Down has its own unique brands of competition though.
Still, my intention was not to hold us in a place of melancholia--I don't believe Victor would like us moping around either. I would like, instead, to return to the proposition I made about showcasing your wares at the club.
[Oswald is right. It's not good to mope around--and she's always been the kind of person eager to move on to anything that could distract her from the things that make her heart ache. So at the opportunity, she jumps.]
That's right! I'd really love to take you up on that. You just tell me what you need and we can get started.

[Easy to take advantage of. Easy to lie to. Eager to please.]
You don't think it'll really be so dangerous, do you? I know we live in the Down, but that's what Ed wanted...
