[ julie's still feeling pretty restless, even once her heartrate settles down. if there was room in here to pace, she probably would, but she settles for sitting next to eddie with a snort when he points out the sunglasses — just like a censor bar, sure — cross-legged with her knee bouncing like that's enough to work out the excess energy from that adrenaline high. ]

[ and then he makes his stupid little comment and julie bristles noticeably, her leg stops moving and she puffs up a little like an angry cat. julie was kind of hoping he hadn't noticed, or at least didn't think much of her turning up maskless, and now she's doubly annoyed because she can't even threaten him to shut up because eddie should be well aware he's safe from her outside trials by now. ]

Yeah, well I've never heard of Dredge bugging anyone since it turned up, but you'd go and find a way to be an exception.

[ yes, fine, she was worried. and who could blame her? nobody! ]
