She starts to say something, but the waitress is back. Eda mutters a vague thanks and begins to pour sugar into her coffee before downing a good third of it as the human walks away. It might be a good thing they were interrupted though, because her words are a little more planned than they would have been.]
We'll figure something out. We'll find some way to stop him. [Or at least, she very much wants to make herself believe that. She's trying very hard to sound like she does.]
And... I won't let anyone hurt you here. [She knows this isn't really something she can guarantee either, but she can do her damnedest. She can keep one of these kids safe.]
