( The compliment lands well and Sansa gives him a soft, sweet smile at the thought that he would rather her happy than fashionable. She will continue to wear what she likes, then, and occasionally go outside that if she feels particularly bold. Now that she's in the car again, she reaches for his hand. She likes touching his hand, innocent touch that it is, and hopes he doesn't mind it. )
Perhaps I can reach some compromise between shorts and these long skirts eventually. For now, though, I thank you for looking to the comfort of my person and not wanting me to feel like I've done something outside of who I am.
[ As she speaks, Baby turns his hand so that they are palm to palm, her hand smaller against his. He slots their fingers together, thumb brushing along the side of her hand. ]
The person I'm interested in getting to know is you. Not someone you think you need to be to impress me. You, as yourself, is impressive. And more than enough.
[ There's also the fact that he's really not that special. ]
And out of the two of us, I should be the one working hard to impress you, not the other way around.
Perhaps we simply want to impress one another because we are fond of one another. It wouldn't be unheard of.
( Sansa grins a little, utterly amused at the thought of it. She feels lighthearted whenever she's around him and she is trying desperately not to lose her head in this. )
I want to be the best version of myself when I'm around you.
[ Reluctantly, Baby has to take his hand back to be able to get the back in gear. He smiles, though, reaching out to brush his thumb against Sansa's cheek before he does so. ]
Yeah. I think we do.
[ And then, looking up in the rearview mirror for Otis. ]

And so does Otis, huh, boy? Let's go!
