[ Moran doesn't finish his comment. He only thought of what would make others happy and feel more at ease should they arrive. And, he feels like the promise of William and Louis having a room and place would help ease any worries and concerns that might be quietly eating away at Albert.
He can live easily knowing that his connection to the manor is unbreakable. It is much like how he held onto the lives of his platoon. Even if he couldn't see them, couldn't hear them, and no longer at their side; he knew they were with him. The manor is more of a comfort while the lives of his men were more like a silent burden that he carried -- but if he didn't carry it, who would?
But Albert is a little different than him. Moran thinks having a room to fix and prepare would do him good. Having a physical space to see makes it easier to feel the connection and bond that he has.
He lets go of Albert's hand to start to walk forward, tucking his own hands into his pockets. ]
I don't mind noticing that you're here. So, don't worry too much about it.

[The gentleness of the gesture doesn't escape Albert, but for once he won't call Moran out. He'll accept this gift generously.]
We'll see to it there's a greenhouse in the back, with roses, lilies... daffodils, irises...
[He's getting carried away, smiling faintly.]
Until then, it'll just be the two of us. You'll hardly notice I'm here.
