[boys what are you doing!! looks between the two of them, eyebrow quirked]
The Sheriff told me the same thing about those who have died.
[which is actually a comfort for her, because it means they can actually win this game and send everyone home safely. she also gives a small smile, because even if she got MORALLY RIGHTEOUS vibes from Damien during the trial the other day, she approves of the way he is talking now]
And I like the way you're thinking, Damien. I, too, would prefer to avoid needless slaughter. And I think we can if we discover a sufficiently entertaining and clever way to end this.
But for now, Percy is right. We need to find the other two Bounties and the Deputy. Perhaps when our group is complete, we can come up with a plan.
[what Milla does next is a little weird, but she had defintely noticed the hesitancy in her Bounty Leader. in one smooth motion, she unsheathes Higekiri's sword at her side and bends down on one knee. the blade lays flat in her hands, the pointed end towards the ground and the holster extended in Damien's direction. it's a very knightly gesture???]
For now. . . please allow me to be your shield. To protect you with everything I can. I believe you are the key to saving everyone, and if you put your trust in me, I shall place mine in you.
