After a few seconds of focusing, Matilda let go of Timea. [color=006d5b]"You're pretty much the same as most other humans."[/color] she said, returning her hand to the handle of her cane.

Jane approached the group with her little collection of flowers, wondering what everyone was doing, and why Timmy was here as well.
[color=66CCFF]"Exactly as I- What?!"[/color] Aqua said in response to Matilda's reading, not expecting that result at all.
You shrug and say; [color=0066cc]"Well, that's that then. But, just for the sake of being fair, how about you check Anik as well, Matilda? If it isn't too much trouble."[/color] As you speak, you keep a close eye on the reactions of both Anik and Timea. You also notice a similar feeling to before, a vague sense that someone, or something, is watching you.
At Matilda's verdict, Timea lowered her hand, and looked down to Matilda, looking equally surprised and disappointed. "That, uhh... ", was all the could get out of her mouth, feeling greatly let down, in herself.
She was silent for a moment, not looking to anything in particular, then took a breath, and looked to Anik. "Well, then. Anik. I do say it's time to own up to what you did," trying rather hard to hide her feelings, Timea mostly spoke with a neutral voice, but it was softer, and words didn't come out of her mouth quite as fluidly.
At Shara's suggestion, Timea nodded along, but said nothing.

[color=006d5b]"That's only fair."[/color] Matilda said to Shara. [color=006d5b]"Anik, take my hand. Or... something. And, most humans are complicated. They do bad things and good things, sometimes simultaneously. It's not black and white."[/color] Matilda then thought silently, before saying, [color=006d5b]"As for whether or not she's dangerous... no idea."[/color]
Anik would try to feel around for Matildas hand, trembling while doing so.
When she touched her, Matilda would find out that Anik had a dark past, killing without hesitation, even finding joy in it. She had a conscience, but she had decided to work against it in following another person.
In fact, Anik was not selfish at all. She was devoted in following, even sacrificing herself for the person she had sworn her service to. In this world, the person was Matilda herself.
To Timea she said: "Wait. I hold my promise."

[color=006d5b]"The two of you really aren't that different, actually."[/color] Matilda said, after a few moments of consideration. [color=006d5b]"Anyway, let's get going before people start wondering what we're up to."[/color]
Anik blew out a sigh, thinking how lucky she was that Matildas ability apparently didn't really work.
Then she drew her swords - and let them drop on the ground before her. She kneeled with them, in the direction of Timea.
"I swear I will do one thing for you, whatever you ask of me, as long as it does not endanger justice. Tell me what it is, and I will do it without hesitation."

At Matilda's mention that Anik and herself weren't very different, her mouth practically crumpled up, and a shiver ran down her spine.
When Anik knelled down in front of her, Timea looked down to Anik for a moment, shuffling her feet around. "You could start by getting up, to begin with. As for my wish, I want you to go to everyone you've spread this misinformation about me to, and make it very clear it's not true", she stated, then, as an afterthought, added, "... Other then that, let's never mention this again."
Seeing Aqua look to her and Anik, with the expression she had, Timea glanced up towards her, asking, "Yes?"

[color=66CCFF]"You... I'm not sure what to make of this..."[/color] Aqua said, clearly distraught. [color=66CCFF]"No, I thought you meant us harm. It's possible that you still do, but I was so sure of it..."[/color]
