[ As can be expected. There's wryness ensconced in her relief, and the mark upon his face receives a concerned inspection, but she is no less grateful to see him in one piece. ]
I am well protected, [ she answers, weary but safe. Her face at least bears no bruises, and black talons grip her shoulder, scarcely visible in the upper right corner of the feed. Her clothes are rumpled, as though someone has tugged them in various directions. ] We were mistaken for enemies and set upon by rioters, but they dealt us no lasting harm. Their ire was easily directed elsewhere.
[ And they had left her enough means in the street with which to defend herself. ]
Ahad has escorted me back. [ The talons on her shoulder move, and she seems to smile. The background of his feed is given one last assessing look, and then she queries, ] Are you well-guarded, where you are?
( dany knows as well as he does that he's faced her with worse injures than a shiner. it could even comfort her, knowing he feels it little... yet even graham has started to cotton in to the fact his heartlessness never seems to be a relief to anyone.
he frowns at her description of the danger she'd faced, yet slowly nods at the affirmation she'd faced it. Daenerys was gifted in drawing the lost to her cause — and the lost sometimes needed a voice to follow. he trusted hers more than many in Audentes. )
I hope you stay away from the fray, if you can. If you can't, I might be able to reach you. ( he had the cruiser, he'd try to get to her if she needed him, at the very least. ) I won't be here long, but the place is away and has a sturdy lock. The people here should be safe.
[ In its own way, the frown is comforting. It is good to be cared for. ]
I will dispatch Loki for our food and supplies, should need arise to go out again, [ she assures him, not wanting him to worry. He would not like to hear it said that way, but if I truly need something of him, he will do it all the same. ] Would that I could offer you my aid, but here I am only some foreign girl with a forceful voice. I would need more hands to still their fists. I would need answers to feed them. They riot because they are frightened.
[ She pauses, not wishing to speak of what she cannot do. It is easier to cast favor upon what he has done. ]
No one will be troubled if they are not in the way, [ she agrees. ] You were good to shepherd so many to safety.
It is best to stay away from the streets if you can. If Loki can't manage, let me know. ( he still can, and finding ways to survive in meagre times is a skill of his. as for the people, she isn't wrong. )
I know.
( granted, it is not in Graham's nature (or capacity) to hold much ill will. even if it was, he wouldn't when their behavior was sparked by fear. he's seen what fear can drive people to do. he does not blame them, even if he does what he can to stop the worst of the violence. )
It is my job, as long as I'm here. ( he's never been very good at taking a compliment, has he? )
