( there's a little reluctance remaining in her expression, though Diana doesn't voice it further. whether he saw it or not, it matters little, now that the fight is spent. she will have to take him at his word, though there's a doubt there when there might not have been before. )
The beast is a threat no longer. We should go behind the walls of the village where it is safer.
( remaining outside still seems quite dangerous, even with the chimera defeated. now that she has an injury, Diana would rather not run into another fight unless she has to. )
[That she's still even trying to believe him is fascinating. His reputation really doesn't reach here. It certainly hasn't reached her home, wherever that was.]
[He's got a lot of rebuilding to do. It's both good and bad. For now, he can repair a little of that deliberate damage.]
I agree. Would you like me to take the lead, since you've so gallantly done so once already?
( she's a determined believer, this one. she's yet to realize the mistake it is to trust so openly, to give second chances and hope for the best. that isn't to say she can't learn, though... and there's already a shadow on the open faith she'd displayed, earlier.
naive, yes, but stupid, no.
she nods at his suggestion. ) I will follow you. ( if trouble finds them, she will do what she can to respond to it. even with an injury, she's not defenseless. still, she'd rather they not have to face anything more if they can help it. for both of their sakes. )
