Yeah, but you know what’ll pass for “practical and nice” instead of “practical, but don’t let her outside.”

( Having seen how nicely Gwenaëlle dresses, honestly, she’d take no offence to the bluntness. She’ll appreciate the tactful approach later once she’s had a chance to mull it over. )

I— to be honest, I feel more comfortable in my overalls, usually, so something that’s practical is probably a good baby step.
