Sasha smiled at Zero’s words, more than a little amused at the situation, flashing Shujin a grin as well, even as she took in what was going on. From just being with Lazarus and Shujin, she was now, it seemed, surrounded by many. She didn’t mind that, as she turned to address them all. She shot a glance at the dragon slayers, frowning at their squabbles. There seemed to be more going on here then she could see, and she rapidly tried to figure out just what, listening to Shujin and Lazarus talk in the background. Pausing a moment or two, she said softly “You really don’t have the right to tell her why she should do something or not. If she wishes to do it because of her mother, in finding answers for her mother, then that’s okay. We all fight for something. 

Sometimes we need something to hold onto, to give us a reason. Do not belittle someone else, because you think it is wrong” She paused another moment, thoughtful, before she cleared her throat, saying “I’d greatly enjoy having you along” She said to them, “I have no issues with it” How many were coming along now? Was this rapidly becoming an even larger expedition then had gone to Edolas? Granted, they hadn’t truly known that they would going to Edolas, but still. 

Would it be enough? It had to be. 

She flicked her attention towards Lazarus and Shujin again. She opened her mouth to say something, but stopped, closing it instead. She knew that lazarus had to do what he could, for his family. She couldn’t stop him… yet she could wish that he could wait until she was able to help. She’d promised that she wouldn’t do anything dangerous… Well, besides this, of course. 

She sighed softly, keeping her attention on those around her.

Jarvis sighed, a fear rising in him. If Amelia came, they’d have to bring Sam. And… he didn’t want to lose her again. Sammy was six, even if she was older chronically. And they’d only just got her back… Amelia was part of that, and Jamie had sacrificed several parts of herself for it. 

He didn’t want to risk losing either of them. 

Yet could he tell them to stay behind? Could he make Amelia stay behind, when she wanted to come, perhaps needed to? He sighed again, and said softly “Very well. But you will not leave the boat, Amelia. I mean it. I don’t want to lose you”
