"I suppose that is true." she conceded. To a point anyways. She would've made a point about those who were wise beyond their years but decided to keep it to herself. He didn't seem to be trying to belittle her, so there was no point continuing to defend something that wasn't being attacked. Of course, at his comment about bleeding out she laughed. "That's fine. I can sew you up just as well on the ground when you pass out." she said, flipping her hair over her shoulder.
Phoebe recognized a weary soul when she saw one, because she knew what that felt like. Her smile was small, a bit melacholy and empathetic. "I'm the same way. Why be unkind when life produces enough of that on its own? I'd much rather make the effort to make people's lives better." she said.
Fortunately, Harper wouldn't have to shorten his stride much since Phoebe was quite tall in her own right. "I do too. Maybe you can wear them out for me." Phoebe said with a laugh as she began leading him back to the clinic. At the mention of Frey and Oliver, she sighed and shook her head. "That boy is going to get himself hexed by the gods one of these days." she said, glancing up at him. "Frey is my friend, and yes, they are the herald of Rae, the god of nature." she said with a small smile.

When the static clears
And all is said and done
I will realize that we all need someone
