The world's a little blurry,
or maybe it's my eyes,
or maybe it's my eyes,
Despite the seriousness of his expression, the words alone would have given him away, even as she saw the glint in his eyes very clearly. It was hard not to laugh at Hadama's joke, and Thal shook her head in disbelief, a crooked smile on her face. "Sure. A 'date.'" Whatever he wanted to call it, she'd be happy to attend.
As topics turned more serious, so did her expression, an annoyed scowl on her face. "Vox certainly seems to be a problem." Considering the one time she'd met(?) him was when she'd been in a very... compromised position, she didn't have the best opinion of the creature(?). And to know that no form of communication was safe didn't reassure her, understanding the strategic concerns of being unable to hide their plans. Her head nodded, wondering if there might be other options or avenues they hadn't explored, but then Hadama was sighing, drawing her attention back to him.
To hear him admit fear told her the gravity of the situation had her body tensing slightly at the idea that she might lose him for some time, her eyebrows raising with a mixture of shock and fear that she mostly hid. She hated every second of that moment, her head shaking to clear it so she might be supportive in spite of her own selfish emotions. "You're one of the strongest, kindest people I know, Hadama. If anyone can succeed, it's you." Her eyes looked to him with the sparkling blue of their ocean depths, hoping to instill him with some of the confidence she felt in his capabilities, having experienced them personally. However, she also offered a small nod and her words. "But if there's any way I can help, all you have to do is ask." Trainings, missions, strategy, she was willing to lend a hand where he needed. She wouldn't sit aside while her friends risked themselves.

the friends I've had to bury
they keep me up at night.
they keep me up at night.
