He turns, his gaze cold behind the skull mask. His fingers pause mid-bandage, lingering on her waist. "You could have gotten yourself killed." He raises his eyes to meet hers, a facade of indifference. "Getting yourself shot... Then what would we do? Hm?" He continues, his fingers running along her waist as he wraps it.
