When Larkin hissed at her earlier, she knew she had done something she shouldn't have. However, she had no idea what it was. The feeling actually intensified when she was taken to her own room and was watched over as a punishment. Moreover, Larkin didn't seem to be doing so just for being a voyeur.
It was a legitimate punishment as Artie didn't like exposing her skin.
Now that she managed to uncover the real reason for the punishment, she quickly hummed and pursed her lips to keep herself from spouting unintelligent responses. After thinking for a few seconds, she seemed to have unearthed an event that happened just recently.
"...? Oh, you're right." Artie twitched. She didn't know what happened to Miel back then, but she remembered how he froze when he saw a rat resting on Larkin's shoulder. No one explained to her what took over the seneschal; neither did anyone mention it again so she had forgotten about the small matter.
For it to be actually something serious...
