[Complicated doesn't even begin to describe it. But Mary's voice perked up.]

Actually, circumstances aside, I'm very glad that she's here. [For so many reasons.] Back in Albion, with everything going on, she and I wouldn't be getting to spend any time together. Here we get to be sisters. Just sisters. It's nice.

[There was no mistaking the affection in Mary's voice.] I just wish I could protect her better here. She, ah, gets a little irritated about it.

[Like anyone when they have an overprotective older sibling.]
