Isibel doesn't really like small talk, but she can put up with it for the requisite three or four sentences, and excuse herself, and permit hours to elapse while she assists with various tasks of establishing the camp. In particular, someone found a water source that didn't have a demon floating in it; there is water to carry. She can carry water and think at the same time, even if it would be inappropriate for her to seek idle time with her notebook.
It is time for after-dinner tea when someone mentions to Isibel that if it happened to be convenient for her, she'd be welcome to take tea with Magania and then perhaps go for a walk.

Of course this will be convenient for Isibel.
Tea is had. Small talk is had.
