Mab looked a little amused by that. "Perhaps a wise decision." She replied. As though the girl hadn't apologized to her at all. In her own way she was being kind, not forcing the girl to answer many questions that could put her under the fae's thumb. Make sure the girl could see that the drink was purely human and not an obligation. But Mab never really did anything without an ulterior motive. Earning this young witch's interest if not trust would certainly qualify as ulterior motive. "Interesting. Is it only the absolute truth you must tell? What if I were to ask you what you wish for me to call you?" It left the girl an opening to give absolute truth about her desires without giving out her real name. And because it was a suggestion instead of a request the young lady could remain completely silent and not say a word. It was a good test. Though Nancy might resent it if it backfired.
