Is he serious? Elizabeth casts him a look of utter incredulity while squinting her eyes firmly shut.

"Whyever not? I was not meant to see a naked man until I was wed."

It isn't like that's going to happen anytime soon if she has a say in the matter. And maybe she doesn't. But in the meantime, she has tried to avert her eyes as much as possible. And right now she is trying her hardest not to look, both out of respect for him, and just because.

But out of the corner of her eye, she can see him grinning, and chances a glance squarely at his face to return it with a small one of her own.

"Elizabeth. A.. pleasure to meet you." Her cheeks are still red with embarrassment, but she nods to his explanation, having heard every word.

"What are these? I have never seen the like before."

Awkward this might be, her curiosity is getting the best of her.
