"It's an honest one; that's always better."
Sabine's answer is forthright but calm.

It's not often she can't tell if a baseline human is lying. They aren't as complicated as they think they are, especially to those whose perceptions are made in such a completely different way. Sabine turns over the words.

"It's best to know what I might be facing and what Jack did before I arrived." It's best to know what he needs watching over, how he's been handling it, and what might be needed of her. Especially with his not remembering what she can do, what she is, and whether she wants to keep that going until the proper memory or rewrite all of it here, again.

He'd taken it as well as she'd ever hoped, but he was in the middle of thinking she wasn't quite dead, and the world was ending in only a handful of days. Not at the best time for either of them and still, it'd changed absolutely nothing.

When the world changed, you wanted it to stay changed.

Yet he was earlier, in a place and memories she didn't know until coming here.

"Do you think they're right? That those pulled here might be able to fix this world?" The words are utterly serious. The mathematic tone of a 'girl' who spent the last centuries planning how to save a different world and every being upon its skin had succeeded before coming here.
