"Okay, we're back! Right, 3? We're staying back. But can we just talk to you, Lapis? Please?" Despite her words, her whole body feels tense, ready to leap at any other show of aggression. Her heart is beating hard in her chest, throwing itself against the inside of her ribs, and it's getting hard to breath. Connie does her best to ignore it and keep all her attention on Lapis.
