He turned on the stairs, back pressed against the wall. He was sitting sideways, that way if he turned his head he had a clear view of her. Except mostly he stared beyond the railing and kept his attention on her out of the corner of his eye. What good would kidnapping her do him now? He didn't have a whole lot to gain- not here.
His expression was blank and unsympathetic at her words. Likely she wouldn't believe it was real coming from him, anyway.
"Three months, huh? Guess you're more of a tough cookie than I thought." It wasn't reassuring, hardly anything from his mouth ever was, but it wasn't as taunting as usual either. In his own bizarre way, it was a compliment.
"And your friends?" He asked, with a vague hand gesture towards the ceiling. Were they here, had they ever been, did she miss them? He didn't particularly care how she answered.
