Her gaze broke away from the shelves and landed on the spirals of Esra’s eyes.
Faustine so rarely placed her trust in others, present company included.
To her, there were always ulterior motives to others’ acts of kindness, always an edge to be found to cut yourself on.

The smile he returned was fleeting and strained, and his eyes quickly return to Esra's as she retreats.
"She still deserves dignity. For goodness' sake, she just [volunteered] herself to kill this thing, which [you] all have told me is a feat of some merit.

They'll forget the paid room key in their pocket, settling for a fitful sleep in the drafty stables.
And in the morning, they'll happen upon Brash in the early hours before Esra's people regroup, looking far worse for the wear than any night in the wilderness had left them.

For his part...
He's finally slumped into a stool at the bar. The flurry comes and goes; the words mean nothing, her face is unknown to him, though it seems to stir others to great awe and great concern. Esra's spiral eyes find a man lost in his own mind.
He at least has the presence to murmur

They're still barely a step from the door with Esra's ringing through their mind unheeded; she could make them hear, but she could not quite force comprehension. Too deeply they wrestle with rapidly changing emotions - confusion, relief, and shameful anger borne of grief.

Esra's eyes returned to their strange orange swirls and she nodded once to Tomomi, then walked to the entrance of the abode, opening the door and then closing it gently behind her.
The time to heal was now. Before something else could go wrong.

Esra's eyes seemed to reform, the orange fading into pools of cerulean. A smile crinkled her eyes and curled her lips.
"You're welcome. I wish that someone had been around to offer me this when I was near your age. I sorely needed it. I made myself a promise that someday, I'd give someone else

Though the strangely shaped pillow catches her eye, she just can't seem to recall where she'd seen it in her past life. Perhaps there would be answers elsewhere, if she chanced to look.
