Jonathan, you do worry too much, though I acquiesce that it may be necessary in this instance. [Erina worried her lower lip in thought.]

Why don't we have you sit far enough away that you'll still be able to hear, but not so far that they would need worry you barrelling down upon them at first disagreement. I am a grown woman, my love, and a rather scary monster myself at night. I think I can fend someone off long enough for you to scruff them like a naughty kitten.
