[With confirmation that it's Kol, her mouth goes wide again and if there wasn't the looming threat on her life, she would have shaken Laurence for his foolishness. Of course Kol wouldn't have said so, that's why she remembers.] Oh, he can't be left, he has a son out there! He'll never live through this alone, oh Kol, why would you...

[She hardly realises that she's started moving in the direction Laurence indicated, her gaze entirely overlooking him in her desperation to get moving again.]

[And away she goes, so very simple as that. Laurence shifts a few steps aside as she passes, making sure they stay wide of one another and then watching until she's long out of sight.

A son, huh...? Laurence sighs, turns, and walks on, rather more vigilant and trying not to think about what his teammate had had to say. He wants his brother to kill him, lady. You wanna explain that to his kid, be my guest.

He has to stop thinking. These people, these games, are going to ruin him.]
