Tokunaga would have retorted to Anise's declaration, but Seles' hand over his mouth stops him from doing so. Fine, fine, he could behave until they got home, but he would definitely talk to Seles about it later. His pristine coat would surely be ruined if she kept handling him like this.
As for Seles herself, she takes in every word Anise says carefully. It was nice knowing they would be accommodated, because she didn't know the first thing about trying to do all this on her own. Sure, she had learned a good deal of other things and probably could have if she'd asked, but everything was always provided for by the Church of Martel, as long as she stayed in the abbey...
Which is why she almost bites her lip when Anise asks her about Tethe'alla, but stops herself in time. "I am new, but from the looks of things, this world is already similar to the one I came from..."
