    Summary

    On New Tideland I was asked:


    @rosewind have you done one of your famous all-canon word analyses for "smile"? That would be interesting.

    I had at the time done a quick sweep—because let’s face it: we all know whose* the first smile Murderbot mentions is!

    So, here we are: all the smiles!

     

    * Gurathin was the only loner, but he seemed to like being with the others. He had a small, quiet smile, and they all seemed to like him.

    Summary

    “So,” he said, “You are to be our grandson’s wife.”
    “An it pleases His Serenity and our father,” said Csethiro Ceredin. Her voice was deeper than he had expected, and she seemed to have to work to keep it from carrying.
    “And how does it please Csethiro Ceredin, pray?” said Maru. 
    “As well as it pleases any lady chosen to be Zhasan, we have no doubt,” said Csethiro coolly. 
    Saying that to Chenelo Sevraseched’s father was either stupid or deliberately brassy, and Maru had already ruled out the likelihood of her being stupid.
