[ Cain lets out a low whistle, duly impressed by the capability of the man sitting in front of him. Who knew that he'd be facing off against such an accomplished man! Or that a peeper would be so accomplished...? But no, he truly does believe that Frederick is telling the truth about it being an accident.
Not that that'll stop Cain from teasing. ]
So long as your Lord Chrom is honorable and noble, I wouldn't want to go against his wishes, have no fear. [ But that still leaves plenty of room for mischief. ] The cooking and sewing will do. [ Cain pauses, eyes lighting up as an idea strikes him. ] And how are you at housework?
[ Please, between exercise, housework, and the various other duties assigned himself by himself, there isn't even any time for peeping. Speaking of housework— ]
Passably fair. I've taken up most of the household chores since arriving in Nysa, though I firmly believe that a man - or woman - ought to be able to be held responsible for their own messes.
[ Read: he's still determined to make Cam and JJ and Clair follow some sort of chores schedule at home. ]
Well, Vane takes care of all that, anyway, so I wouldn't want you doing chores... But I was just thinking, if I need someone to do an odd job or two...?
[ His smile is far too innocent for the question he's asking. Far, far too innocent. ]
For a moment, instead of Cain, Frederick sees Henry across the table, his too-wide smile always indicative of a plan in motion. A plan that Frederick has never ever liked. But he's agreed to this, and Frederick is nothing if not a man of his word.
[ In victory, Cain can be generous. Plus, he's not sure that Frederick can manage to dislodge his dragons enough to actually get to any money to pay with... They seem to have taken up roosts. ]

And so he sighs, defeated. ]
You may call on me whenever you wish.
[ Don't make him regret this. ]
