Teresa turns slightly pale. Clearly, the thought of a fight with Red - or Nanaki - does not appeal to her in the slightest. Her discomfort is made obvious as she stammers for words. "I- er, that is, no, not at all... I mean, I certainly wasn't suggesting a fight with you- Er..."
Lian smirks and pats Teresa's arm reassuringly. "Of course you're not going to fight; Gabe and I wouldn't let you. Calm down, young 'un." Teresa, it seems, does not care for the reference to her age, and resorts to a sulky glare at Lian, while at the same time managing to be apologetic for causing a small disturbance.
Gabe, meanwhile, is very calmly freaking out. The hardened Agency operative simply has no control over the things he does or sees here. He'd learned to ignore the dying screams of those shooting at him, and ignored the pleas of the test subjects he could not save. And if he had the slightest clue that it's what he's been doing for the past several years, he'd be able to say that he'd managed to ignore any signs of affection from Lian. But, since he DOESN'T realize what he's blocked out, he can't tell you that resisting love is one of his greatest accomplishments.(Which would kill Lian, if she had the slightest idea what her feelings were.)But Gabe is hiding his unease very well, and is currently acting as though he sees creatures like Nanaki every day.
Anyone who knows Gabe, though, would testify that he needs acting classes.
