There are a few questions she could ask, but it's becoming clear that even after six months this is still new to them. Or at least, that's the impression her son's withholding of information gives her. She'll have to pry more out of him in private.

She'll start small then. No point in asking about marriage and the couple's future when she is still learning of their present. Being on a ship dragged from various dimensions hardly helps.

There's a small nod of approval at Elizabeth's mention of her son's patience. Good. If he's showing that level of care then she hardly feels out of place asking, "Are you two serious then?"
