[Ease were things that were familiar. Clara's easiest conversations came over practiced subjects or mutual goals. She was able to speak more clearly here, but, the fact that feelings were bubbling in the back of her mind kept her from being truly at ease. It is a refreshing kind of anxiety, though, the type of wanting someone's approval.]

I think I would like... whichever one you like better. I'd like to know what you like of a woman's face.
