James is...really kind. He calls me "Lady Pel" even when I tell him I'm not a lady. He knows being a Keeper's First is enviable without me telling him. He never does the thing where shems explain elven culture to you. He doesn't act like I'm stupid when I don't know how things work among city folk. He's not just polite, he's actually respectful.
And he likes history. And religion. And he thinks it's good that I'm religious in my way, without once trying to make me be religious in his way. I know that's not for you, but...I'm saying he's not trying to make me Andrastian, not at all. And he sees value in my choices.
