It's what she expected. That look like everything inside of him is slowly falling away. She knows that look too well. She's seen it before, when he thinks no one else is looking. The difference is when she sees it then? She's always moving to his side. She's always reaching for him. Trying to find some way to subtly help him.
Not now. Not today.
Instead that look makes her face twist in frustration. She grinds her teeth together and slams her hand on the counter. ]
You always make that face at us every time we try to tell you no. You always look like some.... some wounded bird or something!
You make it impossible to say no to you.
[ Deep breaths. Not too angry.
Except it's too late. ]
You think saying we're friends means you can get away with anything. But sometimes you push too much. It's too much! You're going to get one of us killed next! [ She's nearly yelling at him at this point. ]
