She narrows her eyes at the cold indifference. "Because he's my friend. And he's not going to die, I'm gonna make sure of it."
She's happy to let the awkwardness simmer, though, to let Eponine fill it with meaningless drivel about her life. She can't say she's particularly impressed by everything she's collected on her so far. For all that she screamed in Coraline's face about how she was a horrible person, Eponine didn't strike her as much better.
The long game was fucking exhausting.
She glances back when she sees Eponine take a roll, and reaches out with her free hand to take a sweetbread, something that smells salty and spicy, she didn't care what. "Yeah, of course I am. If they're not gonna feed you, someone has to, and I like annoying the guards by making them let us walk out on our own." She lifts her arm and rests her elbow on the table as she chews. "Besides, if we die here it's real, not like in Horizon."
