Even with her backpedaling, it's immediately apparent that yeah, she fucked up, and her face drops as soon as Lloyd laughs.

"Sorry," she says, helplessly, hands up in a gesture of supplication, and then, "sorry. I shouldn't have said it like that." Honestly she would've rather not said it at all, but it's not like she could lie to Lloyd of all people. "I don't feel great about this, either. But hey," she says, soft, stepping forward to place a hand on his shoulder gently. "We're not gonna let him--" Hm, nope, try again. She starts over, "We're not going to let anything happen to him. Right?" One way or another, she is going to keep this Zelos safe. She continues, rueful, "Besides, with this weird link between us, I'll know if..." She can't finish that sentence, just letting out a deeply uncomfortable laugh. It's way too early in the morning to be discussing the logistics of preventing Zelos's potential future suicide, even if it's only obliquely. "A-anyway. I'm sure it'll be okay."

Probably! Maybe. This is such a fucking mess. Sheena just drags her hands down her face, with a low, muffled noise that could have been fuuuuuck.
