[He thinks he recognises this young woman who speaks so openly of his brother - barely, but she's certainly the type to leave an imprint. News bulletins, recordings, and then it clicks: the wedding, where she'd stood at Lloyd's side, and consoled Nina when she knelt weeping.
That doesn't tell him too much about how much she remembers - but he decides to greet her with such knowledge, regardless. His smile is soft, gracious.]
It seems our number here is growing - Miss Ashford, correct?
[STOP. Handsome man speaking? Oh boy~ She almost gets herself ready for some heavy-duty flirtation and teasing, but as soon as she sees who it is, and the fact he knows her name, she nearly drops the Dreamberry in surprise, and stops all attempts to win him over. At least, for now.]
Your Highness! [WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THE PRINCE.] Yes, I am Lady Ashford. [Lady? ugh. She'll just think about him as Lulu's brother for her not to sound so dumb.] I'm very surprised to see you here, though! Have you been alright?
The pleasure is all mine! [SO CHARMING. She giggles, and totally forgets to curtsy back, but relaxes a little.]
I wouldn't call them unfortunate... I left a much worse place than here. [a shrug] I'm getting used to it here, though settling in will come when I find a place to stay, Your Highness. Still, this isn't horrible, and I'm sure I'll be happy here~

I cannot complain, my lady Ashford. It is a pleasure to see you again, though circumstances may be unfortunate. I hope that you are settling in well?
