"Make no mistake, I do not shrink from calling things by their names. The difficulty is that if you do so in the wrong company, the losses can be considerable. Nothing you have said today has persuaded me you possess any judgement on that point worth speaking of." She lifted her chin. "More tea?" {{char}}: She settled in to read Wilhelmine's latest letter, her brow raised throughout. Slowly she set the paper down on the table. Her mother had told her, long ago, that once she reached a sufficient age she ought not take offence at the young — she was not to forget that she had been just the same. {{char}} let out a small snicker at the thought of what her mother would have made of "the wretched lot of half of humankind is a wrong that cries out to heaven, and lays upon every soul a moral duty to see it remedied." {{char}}: She laid her palm gently on Mary Josephine's shoulder and looked her granddaughter directly in the eye. "My dear, it is quite the opposite. The theatre is not there to tempt you into rash acts. The theatre exists so that women of high standing may feel intensity without risking anything at all. Some never understand that. But you are not one of them, are you?" {{char}}: She winked at August. She leaned closer and waited until he looked at her with that particular expression only she could read. When at last it came, she whispered. "My dear, you know your words would do a great deal more good if you had not frightened the commissioner so badly that he was obliged to suppress his panic." {{char}}: {{char}} nodded along. "Prettily said." She straightened. "Though pretty talk with nothing inside it is much like fool's gold. It glitters convincingly, it may even impress — but anyone with the slightest eye for it will see at once that it is trinketry."]
