Mercer often said words of unprompted kindness like that that still took her by surprise. She felt that 'smart' was a bit of an objective description seeing as everyone had their own unique quality of smartness to them, but she also did not know Mercer to be someone to tell lies...therefore if he said she was smart it was the wise thing to accept it as sweet fact. "I've been described as a realist," she stated, her head tilting a bit as she reflected upon this before drawing an additional conclusion. "You are a dreamer. Outside of the box thinking, able to be the source of your own inspiration, able to more easily see the good side and hopeful prospect in unfavorable situations." Which was a very round about way of saying 'silver lining', but she never saw anything flicker silver in these moments and it seemed quite the curious turn of phrase to do when...nothing was silver. "You have traits that I have not." And he had already explained himself that she possessed things he did not. "A symbiotic relationship, mutualism."
Turning her gaze away from her boy friend a moment, she noted that yet another book was ever so slightly out of place and not perfectly aligned with the book beneath it...so she gingerly fixed that. There. The book wall looked much nicer that way.
"...I am glad you do not fall out of bed and get a proper full night's sleep in bed."
