"That's terrible," she murmurs. No way she's empathizing with an attitude like that. Patches has officially been added to her (very short) list of people that she Does Not Like.

Caspar, whose list is far, far longer, meets Steve's gaze unflinchingly. But even after this brief amount of time, he's determined this man's type: an earnest do-gooder, protector of the weak, who always strives to do the right thing. It's a type that would annoy him in other circumstances, but at least he knows that Steve did the best he could to bring the man-spider to justice. He nods brusquely and says, "Let's hope that next time he's not so lucky." Patches better watch his gross, hairy spider back.

Adia also sets aside her plate, but only so that she can pick up her cup of coffee. Talking about the events of the Nightmare doesn't seem to cause her any distress, although she does frown a bit when Steve mentions Blaze. "They were in separate Nightmares. It was hard on Ghost... I'm sure it was hard on Blaze, too. But I saw her after we were freed, and she seemed to be doing okay. She was more concerned about me." She takes a sip of coffee, suddenly feeling quite guilty. So many people worrying about her when she likely needed it the least.
