"Of course," Dani says, smile still small but meaningful. There are, unfortunately, plenty of people for whom she knows that wouldn't be true — maybe even here, though at least Darrow seems more consistently progressive than what she left behind — but as far as she's concerned, there's nothing to thank her for. If anything, she's grateful for the trust this must have taken, and to be able to stand here looking at Viktor, her friend, knowing this is an honest representation of him.
She's curious, of course, about how long he's been ruminating on this, about why now, but it's none of her business — or, rather, it's up to him to decide how much he wants to share, and not on her to pry. Her reaction would and will be the same either way, especially because it's clear how happy he is, looking self-assured in a way she isn't sure she's ever actually seen him before.
"Work's alright. Quiet, which is good," she answers, taking a sip of her own drink. "How are things with you? I mean... clearly some big developments, right?"
