Nita gives him such a Look, one could almost think she was back to normal.
(She's not, not by a long shot, but she's still more than capable of reacting to other people downplaying themselves!)
But she smiles, again, as he goes on. "Glorfindel's practically walking sunshine, isn't he? I'm glad he can help you, too."

But, if it could, it'd be smiling now, too. You're two for two, Xander!
Nita shakes her head slowly, amazed. "I believe you. So," she says, finally turning to look at the whipped-cream-and-strawberries bowl again.
"Did you just want to watch me eat, or... I'm pretty sure someone's going to end up watching me anyway, but that still doesn't mean you have to! You could have brought a book or something."
