( She sees what she has. That's why it's worth protecting. Worth letting it continue to influence her world back home and the city here. And what she has here includes Carlisle. It very much includes Carlisle. He's been part of her life in Hadriel since her very first flat here, and the idea of letting him die. )
So we just give up on you, then?
( Seriously? That can't be the answer. The people here have fought so much. Carlisle has fought so much, even if not as directly as herself or Glacius. There's a reason he's the first person she had in mind, even over her own clinic staff, when she got whipped across the face by a Null's limb. She's fought so much. She's seen and heard about people coming back from the worst things.
She may not have a clue right now, but that doesn't mean she won't eventually.
Hadriel help her, she's beginning to sound like Faith.
There's a pause, long enough for it to seem like Kate's done talking, long enough for her to try and get a handle on her emotions again before they spiral out into something more. Think of what Glacius might do. Think of what Sweets said about keeping her urge to compete in check. This isn't about winning a fight. It's about stopping one.
For once. )
... Y'said it were part of your condition, aye? How's that... function?
( Call her curious. She's shaky on the details. If they were told to her, it was probably a long time ago. )
