You're gonna have a next time, huh? [ He spares her a look, but his tone is disinterested more than anything else. Yup, talks a big game, doesn't have any results to back it up as far as he can tell. The sewers would be a good idea. Assuming she gets out in the first place. And can find the sewer in time. And has enough to eat down there while waiting. Still, actions matter more than words, so any credit he could give her has yet to actually form. ] Good luck with that.

[ What she says next though is so odd, it almost makes him forget about his current situation, her previous insinuation at cold-blooded murder of an innocent, all of it. There's still a violence thrumming under his surface, but Amos' brows furrow at her prodding. ]

What do you think killing someone is?

[ He's killed plenty. Sometimes up close, though beating someone to death is more his speed, not strangulation. Hearing someone describe taking a life like that, though, is... He doesn't know if Eponine has ever killed anyone herself, but if she has, they're on completely different pages. You kill someone and move on. You don't savour it. That'd be fucked up, and he's plenty fucked up already, but not like that. ]
