She had to wonder how old Elizabeth actually was. The flames for eyes was still a bit concerning, although they hadn't returned, yet Runa was keeping her guard up so to speak. She wasn't sure if she could die permanently at any point here, she didn't want to push her luck. She also was afraid that even the temporary death that seemed to happen here would hurt. Like most people, she had an aversion to pain... most of the time. Runa put her right hand on her left arm, knowing the scars concealed by the jacket, all self inflicted. [color=#a81a75]"I'm Runa Johansson,"[/color] she said quietly. Her anxiety levels heightened as Elizabeth started talking about Balder and Hel. While a few moments ago she had been considering telling Nadia and Klara what she had learned when she died, Runa's instincts now told her to double down on her silence. They were dismissing what Elizabeth said about Balder being alive anyways. From what they said, it should have been impossible for Balder to be her father. Maybe the Gatekeeper she had seen was wrong, playing a cruel joke. Runa relaxed a bit at that idea. Her father, the god of love? It was silly to think about. Her actual father was probably just... just an ordinary man who left her mother. But there was also the fate of the world to contend with, inspiring self doubt. Was this really her secret to keep? What if not telling this caused everyone to die? Runa's eyes started watering up with tears at the thought that she could be responsible for that much suffering. They wouldn't believe her though. Even if she tried to help the world, it would be a doomed effort. It was a cosmic joke. She took the money from Nadia and [i]bolted[/i], throwing the pennies down on the counter since even upset, she didn't want to shoplift. She ran, tears flowing rapidly like a geyser erupting. Runa blindly dashed into the elevator, pressing a button at random, and she stumbled out onto a floor and just kept on running, trying to find someplace to hide.
