Mildred says she will go with us,
gpt
Did you ask Mildred to join us?
human
No, she proposed it,
gpt
You mentioned last night in our talk that you hadn’t seen much of Mildred since you came; that she was too much of a belle for your comfort.

human
I am yours to command, Clover, always.
gpt

I think the least you can do is to be there, considering that they are our guests.
