04.6 Crossed legs

"Um .." The Captain was leaning against the door in the usual manner–hands and legs both crossed, with his shoulder relaxing on the door frame–there was only the bed and a chair in the room, both of which were occupied. Only now did he speak up after me and Sammy were done with our conversation. "The main crafter for this district is looking for new workers. He asked me for some suggestions. If Samm-eul has a background then I don't mind recommending him. Oh but .. it's on Sammy from then on, how he settles himself there." He really tried not to call Sammy casually, but well. Maybe it's because I said it so often?

Sammy's hopeful eyes stared at me so intensly, I couldn't even say anything to refuse, "That's .. very kind of you Captain. I'll be indebted to you for this." What am I saying?

"Uh .." Even the Captain was weirded out. Was I acting? Why the hell? I guess this should be the natural response Alex should have.
