Audrey's not surprised about how he gives as little as possible that isn't not actively avoiding answering the question. Because she couldn't at all be inquiring about him, too. Because even her smile is chiding, because, seriously. Seriously, Nathan? How many sheds are in Haven? She's still not surprised either.
"Maybe 'she' decided you needed to learn how to unwind, too." It's teasing, and a little prodding, even when the reference the the place or the Bar or whatever it is these people call it, is still said with quotations like she's repeating terms that aren't hers.
The same way she been picking up Havenite things, slow and steady. At least in Milliways they hand them to you, unlike in Haven. Where they wait to tell you what you're doing wrong, like where you've got the wrong pastries, but only after never telling you where the right places were in the first place.
Not that being an outsider is anything new. Isn't entirely normal. Isn't more normal than anything else.
Still. The people here fall all over telling her things. Which isn't how it is in Haven, or with anyone from there.
