Rialynn had been wondering what she was going to see. She'd wondered about it nearly all day, and some of last night as well. The two of them had been through a lot together, and she thought she had a pretty good idea of all that he was. But who could tell? Maybe he was secretly a pervert, or really hated his looks. When the machine hummed, she subconsciously held her breath.

When his duplicate appeared, her brow flickered in consternation. The way he held himself, the way he spoke... Was this some sort of fear? She leaned forward, trying to get a better look.

It would make sense. True courage came from the ability to face fear and move past it for a greater purpose, it wasn't just ignorance of danger.

Her attention moved briefly to Jack and Johnny, then back to Ramza as she gave a barely perceptible nod.

They had his back. For now she stayed quiet so as not to disrupt anything, but internally, she was tense. If there was any sign of trouble at all, then...!

Well. She'd never sucker punched someone's shadow before but there was a first time for everything.
