[ this is... somehow so far from what heine was expecting to hear that he can't do anything other than hear her out. being from vague future dystopia europe he does have a concept of knights and squires, although as far as he knows this might be the first time in history anyone has been offered a squire position because they have a fucked up sense of justice.
he realizes his jaw has dropped slightly and closes his mouth, then blinks, his eyebrows lifting even further. ]
Your... squire. [ this is on its face an absurd proposition, because heine? a squire? ] I guess that makes you a knight?
[ he has many questions. that is the first one. the second one is: ] What does a squire do, actually?
[ it is one hundred percent a bad idea for don quixote to make this offer without knowing all the facts re: heine's upbringing and the blood on his hands, but it's weirdly touching that she does, anyway. ]
