The woman's emotions were not very well hidden, and it didn't take long for Renfry to connect the dots. She probably should have done so earlier, but everything about this was so... weird. It wasn't anything Renfry was prepared for, but now that she sensed the turmoil inside Lyra it made sense.
Yes, he does, she said simply. She wasn't sure there was much he couldn't do if he set his mind to it, and she'd chosen to be his weapon. For better or worse, her choice was made, and she wasn't going to step away.
You're in love with him? she asked as bluntly as was her way. It would have been the sensitive thing to do pretty much anything else, but Renfry was equally surprised in her own way. Again, she shouldn't have been. Emryc had drawn her in, and she wondered how many others. But Lyra had pursued the line of questioning and it was Renfry's turn to be unrelenting.
She stopped and turned to look at the other woman, feeling the an array of emotions within the other woman including confusion and... was that anger? It was difficult to say.
If you have something to say to me, spit it out, she said. She almost surprised herself. A moment ago she'd wanted to leave the issue alone, but now she felt... defensive. And when she was defensive, she was direct. @GABA
