Acting swiftly, she tore a strip of fabric from her dress and moistened it with water from her flask. Then, she proceeded to dab at the corner of Menzai's lips gently, hushing him as he tried to speak. [color=F745AA]"Menzai. You do not need to speak...Just listen."[/color] Her eyes searched his for a moment. Menzai had been closest to her in all that she had known and she could imagine what was going through that head of his. With a smile, she said tenderly, [color=F745AA] "You saved me... Thank you."[/color] She had wanted to say more, feeling as if a thousand words had been lingering on the tip of her tongue. But it was then a loud slam shattered the moment, startling her. She whirled to look over her shoulder, immediately stating with recognition, [color=F745AA]"Ulyses!"[/color] Her mind had not anticipated his presence, yet there he stood, brandishing his axe as always. Heeding the initial instructions to stay put, Phia remained rooted to her spot, continuing to heal Menzai until she was certain that further blood loss was no longer a concern. During this brief respite, Phia took a quick survey of her surroundings, noting that Dante was on the ground and acknowledging Cyrus's nod with one of her own. [color=F745AA][i]I have to make sure Dante is okay too after.[/i][/color] She had given Jin a nod and smile in regards to his statement, but had not yet commented until she noticed them approaching Cyrus and Viola. She had not been able to quite hear every word from her position, but it was when he swung his axe as a threat toward them that something awoke in her. With an unreadable expression, she gently laid Menzai down and rose to her feet. She felt as if her legs were moving toward the situation on their own accord. Arriving moments after Darius had taken his stand, Phia allowed him to speak, though her clenched fists betrayed her feelings. [color=D3943B]“Hey Ulyses, Thing 1 and Thing 2! Let's get off of ten and take it down to a… a two. Okay?... Hey listen! They helped us. A lot...I don't know them but… I don't know, take my word for it. This could have been a whole lot worse and I trust them...We're not fighting, right?”[/color] [color=F745AA]"Darius is correct...They could have run."[/color] Phia chimed in, adding some weight to his statement. [color=F745AA]"They stayed and they fought valiantly..."[/color] Her eyes fell on Cyrus and Viola, glossy with emotion. She had just met these two yet she felt willing to lay her life down to make sure they were safe. Phia knew it was absurd to feel that way about strangers, but she could not stop herself. In a moment of charged silence, Phia's unwavering gaze found its target in Ulyses, her voice resolute, [color=F745AA]"With all due respect, you will refrain from threatening my comrades ever again, Ulyses."[/color][/color]
