"Doesn't it?" agrees Jarvis.

"Very. Erm, pardon me if the answer is 'enough that this question is rude', but how smart are you?"

"Pardon granted," says Jarvis.

Bella laughs. "Thanks."

"One rude question is still taking it better than expected."

"What do you usually expect?"

"I usually don't. You're the first human I've spoken to outside the family."

"Oh!" says Bella, surprised. "I'm - flattered, I think, why me?"

"You seemed all right."

Bella snorts. "Well, good, I aspire to seem all right. Er, to what extent are you the house? 'Cause, I've stayed over here before."

"All the electrical systems in the tower are under my control."

"But you don't, like, have cameras in the bathrooms or anything?"

"No. Although it's most often safe to assume that if something is happening in the tower, I can hear it."

"...Noted. Thanks for letting me know."

"I can also, by request, stop listening," he adds.

"That's good to know."

"Any other exciting revelations?" Bella inquires, of either Tony or Jarvis, it's not clear since Jarvis has no obvious eyes to make eye contact with.

"...um... maybe," says Tony.

"...Maybe?"

He sighs. "Sorry. Just. Some things are not really mine to tell."

"Whose are they, then, you've got me curious."

Tony shakes his head. "You'll find out or you won't."

Bella sighs. "Yes. That is the case."

So... awkward silence, then?
