Alice lets out a small hum at that last statement.

"I'd say you're fairly tolerable." That.. sure would not be a compliment by most people's standards, now would it. That's the same as saying someone is not the worst, or something along those lines. But considering the fact that Alice is usually hesitant to speak of anyone in a positive manner, this is just about the most complimentative she can get.

"There's a difference between being straightforward and rude, after all. The former can be helpful since there's no need for useless fluff. The latter involves being unkind to strangers, and I wouldn't say you have done or said anything bad enough to offend me so far."
