Arthur's response to the seductive stance is to act a little more like a gentleman. She's beautiful, but clearly outclasses him. What else should he do?
He takes off his hat and lets it dangle from a finger. "Just about six months, Mrs. Carr." Not to be rude, but even if there's no ring she looks about old enough to be married or widowed. "You been findin' your way around the Barge alright?"
He's got an accent thick as syrup, his voice slow. It can make him seem a little simple at times, though he's no such thing.
