Duck Lake Blind Date

Her answer was rather abrupt, but Howl had expected there to be something wrong. What he would have disliked was if she had said "I'm fine" when she clearly wasn't. He listened to her explanation, but it was unspecific and vauge. Thinking it over he understand what she ment on a metephoric sence, but without knowing the story he was drawing a blank.

He wasn't sure what it was that she wanted but he still so he asked "What is it that you wanted?... Maybe I could get it for you." The first statement he asked sincearly while the second he still ment but he added a short, light hearted laugh not knowing if it would actually be something he could get.
