Steph's eyes dart around the room almost wildly, trying to make sense of the way the room changes and shifts with the flickering light. What Benji said sounds like lines from a poem or song, and it makes Steph wonder if the other woman is really here or if she's off in her own little world. She's scared, in a way she hasn't been for a long time and it pulls on her subconscious, almost making her forget that she isn't actually back there, waiting for Black Mask to return, her wrists broken and her suit sticky with blood.

"You--" don't understand, is what she wants to say, but it seems pointless to try to explain, there isn't enough time, "He's going to come back, we have to get out of here." It feels like she's begging, and in a way, she is. She just hopes that's enough to get them moving. She'd go on her own if she could, but Benji seems more familiar with this city, and there's still the injured girl to look after.
