This conversation hasn't really gone any of the ways Sheena had imagined it going. But… it's progress, maybe. She can accept that.
"Yeah, alright," she says, the soft note that had crept into her voice earlier not leaving. "I think I can manage that." Here's hoping, at least. She's not alone, and maybe that's all it will take to keep him safe long enough to get out of the country. "From what Anna and Malos said, it shouldn't be too much further to neutral territory."
She falls silent after that, not wanting to ruin the moment, but before long the noise of someone approaching reaches her. With the soft snatches of speech accompanying the footsteps, it's probably the rest of their group and not soldiers catching up, but - best not to be caught unawares, just in case. (Maybe if she hadn't waited so long to have this conversation, they would have had time to recover from it before the others came back.) Sheena pushes herself to her feet, turning in the direction the voices are coming from as she tries to spot them.
Well - no one else would be wearing that much red, that's for sure. She laughs to herself about that softly, waving as the trio comes into sight to catch their attention.
