[A nod. He trusts Peggy to be watchful, helpful, friendly. Not too smothering. And he feels like... perhaps, from what he's seen of Angharad, they would have surprisingly similar tastes. Or at the very least, Peggy reminds him faintly of Angharad, with their shared determination and stubbornness and no-sense demeanor.]

Don't even know if she... Hmmm... Likes me all that much.

[The anxious look is a bit more humorous, as he tries to find a nice way to put it.]

Was kind of... myself... around her back home.

Duly noted, but -- [ she allows for the smallest of smiles. ] But I promise I can find it in my heart to give her all the help she might want despite her possible distaste for you.

[ she knows that's not what max had been trying to explore with that statement. but it's so silly -- she can't help but underline how very much she doesn't care about what others think. max's value must come from max himself, and not what others read him to be.

[ she is so losing the dog isn't she. ]

Only way you'd win is putting treats in your pockets.

[........ Even Max knows.

Dog's too taught.]

Done. I'm not above cheating.

[theroadwarrior]

Huh.

Good. You're part wastelander. Hope for you yet.

[mucked]

Really? [ she smiles. ] Should I feel flattered or horrified?

[theroadwarrior]

Probably the latter.

But... That saying, hm. "S'the thought that counts."
