The response gets a pause, considering her name for a moment. The introduction was definitely an indicator that she was at least from a more modern time than him (as if the clothing didn’t already). No leading with her surname to go with miss, so he hummed lightly. “Right, uh- Llewellyn Watts-Maresh at your service.” He added with a clumsy tip of his hat with a free hand before he lifted her bag from his shoulder to hand over.

“Well, I would only need to pretend I didn’t see that if someone asked me if I saw it…” Translated to ‘If you don’t bring it up, I won’t.’

… Or he thought she was asking him to not spread the word about the new person who threw away her key and money upon arriving. Hard to say. Either way, he didn’t really have a reason to point it out.

“This all tends to be a lot for mm… people who are new to all this.” So, while he wasn’t sure if she was the first person to react as she had, she probably wouldn’t be the last.
