[Natalia pauses and looks at Yuri, surprised at the compliment. Did he just call her 'pretty'? And he did it so casually! It's unlikely he meant anything serious by it, but still.]

Oh. Well thank you, you're very kind.

[And she supposes it does make her a little happy. She's flattered often on account of her rank, and it isn't as if she's a slob about her appearance on any occasion. Even so, she does appreciate the notice. She follows after him, using her elbow to push her way through the door without upsetting the trays.]

This isn't typical for you, then? You weren't all that unkempt when we first met, it isn't as if you needed that much polishing.
