[ He doesn't understand a thing about what she does, other than the mindreading. It wasn't until she'd stopped the guy from attacking Daryl with just a touch that he'd been forced to wonder if she couldn't also put thoughts into people's heads. It's a chilling thing to consider. ]
[ She hadn't gone into detail when she'd told him but yeah, that was pretty much what he'd been imagining after what he'd seen her do - grabbing that guy and convincing him to just let Daryl walk away from the cages when he'd come to rescue her.
It's enough to make him shiver at the strangeness. He'd never seen anything like it. ]

So I guess you're fine.
no subject
A shortcut right into the deepest pits of the Void made the stay shorter, but I don't think the trip was any better than last time. You?
no subject
So.
[ But that isn't the whole truth of it, is it? ]
Wasn't my choice to go out there. They forced our hands this time.
no subject
Do you think it was the Duchess' doing? The portals?
no subject
Don't know, didn't see em. I got the hell outta town when the cages went up.
[ He'd tried to get Jesse and others to safety. None of that had exactly worked. ]
no subject
Yeah, I saw the cages. Up close. Mavis was there too.
no subject
[ He's a font of wisdom. ]
How close?
Yeah, she wouldn't let me help. Got out on her own later, I guess.
[ Mavis being difficult and stubborn, what else is new? At least she'd come to find him after... ]
no subject
I saw her getting out.
[ she didn't need his help and he's still pissed about it. ]
no subject
Yeah? How'd she do it?

She told one of the townspeople to let her out.
And he did. Just like that.

You ever seen her do something like that before?
no subject
It felt wrong.
no subject
She ever used it on you?
no subject
[ she only learned it to use on him, apparently. uhh. ]
no subject
[ And she hasn't. To hold back a power like that in a place like this is something to be admired, as far as Daryl understands it. ]
And didn't you help a guy kidnap her? She could have used it then.
no subject
She hasn't been able to do it before. I don't think so. She would have used it.
What I'm saying is be careful around her.
no subject
The only one I'm worried about is the guy who was ready to kill her.
[ The one she'd just... given herself up to. Daryl will never understand it. ]
I trust her. [ As much as he can. ] Not him.
[ And not you, Felipe. ]
no subject
It could be his doing. I don't know what's happening. She's not talking to me.

[ He'll conveniently leave out how he was yelling at the time too. ]
She's gotta make her own mistakes. Or she'll end up hating us instead of him.
