She tries to calm herself, grabbing something soft to tightly hug, feeling her heart rapidly pounding against her chest. She looks down, not answering Assassin's apology with anything more than a distant hum ]
Some tea.
[ She says, hesitating and glancing to her side as she draws her feet and legs closer to herself. ]
Or maybe something strong.
[ She glances to Assassin, very briefly before turning her gaze away once more, ashamed that she wants to get buzzed after what happened ]
I'll let you decide what it is...
[ She sighs exhaustedly, muttering "I just want to go home" to herself. She never wanted any of this, but her brother had to get himself involved. Now he's gone, and she's left to pick up the pieces of what he's done while mourning for him. It made her very distant to Assassin, keeping their relationship professional. It's working to her detriment, since she doesn't have anybody to talk to anymore, making her feel alone in a War that would likely claim her life. ]
