[She's scared-- she's terrified, honestly. That... that... thing was doing all manners of terrible things to Sebastian; most of it without lifting even a figurative finger. Just the voice gave her horrid chills.
But she refused to back down. Instead-- when she was mentioned, she forced her legs to carry her forward-- even shaking as they were-- and stood next to Sebastian.]
...if you want to talk to me, that's fine--
[It's not fine really. She doesn't want to talk to it. But...]
So talk. And let him go.
[Even though it's clear she's frightened; her tone is like steel. It may be a bad decision but regardless, it's the only decision she knows to make and she's going to make it her way. In a strong way.]
