Great character voice. It felt very much like Darla. Totally frustrated with her situation, but coming to love the child despite herself and trying not to show it. Wouldn't fit with the tough image she has of herself.
"They - they can't - some will want to protect you," she said. She looked down again, making that eye contact that wasn't really eye contact. "They'll have the best of intentions and some particularly stupid ideas on how to make them happen. But that's not going to matter. In the end there's only you. Forget that, and you die."
Sad how right she is.

She stopped. She felt cold, which was ridiculous, and uncertain, which was preposterous.
Either way, she changed the subject.
Yessss.

(2) Damn, she did it again. She made me interested and sympathetic to somebody, some character I have't thought of in two years.
Bloody marvelous work, wot?
