Rose gives him a real smile, "I didn't know about the old priest, you are full of surprises Rath, but don't sell yourself short mister, you aren't just a little feint light, you are the bravest, and best man I've ever met...you, you, nevermind you've heard me say this before so...Ok, Mr Oblivious, I already eliminated half the know world, I'll knock off one more...." and she leans over and kisses him, "It's not me".
Rath took the kiss, but he was distracted.
"That says more about them men you've met than it does about me," he muttered with a smirk. The smirk went away.
"True, you're no goddess, Rosey. You ... you're flesh. Flesh and blood. " He leaned in and kissed her back. His heart was hammering in his chest, but not because of the kiss. What did Rose know that Rath didn't? Or, worse, what did she know that Rath wouldn't admit to knowing?

Rose does add one more word on the subject,
"As long as you aren't one of those CPP clerics...I do not like them."
He leaned back, brow furrowed.
"Uh. What?" he said, astute as ever.
