See, I'm not sure if the man simply has an epic poker face and flair for bravado, or if he actually has seen stranger, in which case he ought to write his memoirs and retire on the proceeds.

I'm impressed, though I suppose not actually surprised, at Remilia's composure at being exposed to something that would have been quite scandalous by the standards she's most familiar with. I am mildly surprised that Flandre didn't have any noteworthy commentary on the shows.

So magic follows Bellisario's Maxim does it?

Given the directive/threat she hissed into his ear not a moment before I actually wonder what her current (cargo? passenger?) had to think about that snarl. Probably it is best for his dignity that his clothing was already soaked with less than pristine river water.

Well, at least the man is aware of his faults. Though that awareness probably contributed to his ill considered leap.
