A lot of things were getting to her head alright, not just the heat as she silently regarded the people around her. The initial assumption she'd made was that she'd managed to say something wrong, which tended to be the norm when she hadn't properly thought out her responses. But no less did it leave her with a light sense of shame that she'd actually done something wrong as Cassie and Roland began to... Lie? Why would they? Behind her hood, her expression was nearly unreadable, with only faint traces of uncertainty to give away at the odd ruse. But then, her uncertainty could have been for anything, could it not?
