[ With his face, of all things. Iorveth tries not to sour at the mention of it, as it prompts Dolores to inspect the gnarled right side of him more closely. He can feel her eyes passing over the clearly man-made scar running from his mouth to his eyepatch; to some extent, he knows the old wound lends credence to their story, but he turns his head away regardless.
Maybe the gesture helps. The body language coupled with Astarion's embellishments successfully convince Dolores not to turn them over to the authorities (good persuasion roll), and instead of running out of the room for help, the sweet gnome crouches to start cleaning the mess she's made on the floor.
"Don't you worry about help, darlings. Brings me right back to when I was helping that silly old dwarf adjust to life on the surface, really... I can draw you a bath, bring you something new to wear."
She looks Astarion up and down, wiping her hands on her apron. Iorveth snorts softly despite himself, imagining Astarion cramming himself into a gnome-sized bathtub. ]
...Thank you. I only ask that you don't speak of this encounter to any Fist you may run into.
[ Buzzkill. All he really needs is this gnome to not go around telling everyone about the two elves she fostered like her cats. ]
