She didn't understand everything that he spoke of, the the portions she did made her grin. "Hm...presumably medieval-style monarchies abound there, then? Quite illegal where I'm from to forcefully stifle the words of a protester (though it would be silly to assume it doesn't happen). Having superheroes as the only reliable source of keeping the multitudinous supply of D-list supervills at bay really tends to give them plenty of leeway (to lie, lie, lie)."

She seemed bitter about something but she didn't mention it any further. Instead, she slid to the side to offer the paladin ample room to sit beside her, though her hands were still hidden beneath the lengthy tablecloth.

Still riddled with anxiousness (and pain) with her current situation, she'd been wringing her hands obsessively, leaving her no choice but to wipe her sweaty palms on the underside of the tablecloth ever so often. She found it just a tad hilarious that he was mentioning her as being 'cute' when what she currently did was anything but.

"Ah yes, I could. You see, the mind is a very complex organ but quite vulnerable as well. Just as I could piggyback your sensorium and share in the sensations you receive from any form of sense-based input, I can also manipulate those same things as a form of telepresence, or in other words your mind would think I'm physically there, despite it all playing out in your head. The same could be done with memories (though that's a bit trickier, given that your mind might change them to cope with the ah...'intrusion')."
