Edmund's head tilted one way and stayed there a moment, considering Father Brennan's words genuinely.
The thought of he and Mable establishing themselves in town was intimidating, but. It'd be nice to have someone in their circle, especially if that someone was Father Brennan. Edmund couldn't say for sure just yet, but he thought Mable would get on with him well. Mable got on well with everyone.
"I'm not sure yet," he settled on, possibly the most objectively truthful thing he'd said all night. "I'll ask Mable her thoughts in the morning, but... I think I'd like to. It wouldn't hurt to stop for a bit and earn some coin, at the very least."
That way, they won't need to rely on friendly strangers wandering around at night offering to pay for a bed for them. Edmund really doubted it would happen to him again.
Reminding himself of the circumstances of the kindness afforded to them, Edmund glanced up at the taller man, looking him up at down curiously.
"What were you doing walking around late at night yourself, Father? Why aren't you resting yourself?"
