He's a sweet kid and she should maybe ask if he's okay. But he looks fine.
"Good luck," she says, and disappears in a puff of smoke.

"Well. 'New Arda' is disambiguating for the moment."
"If you ever feel like it'd be a good idea to take a bit of a break, or get some distance, from your boyfriend, there are organizations here that can arrange anything you might need, and it wouldn't get our attention or become relevant to dimensional politics or anything unless you wanted that."
