[ carolina's giving herself credit for finding a wall she can't break. it's sturdy, stone or something like that. the paint is already scuffed. the few streaks of blood she's left in the wake of her hits barely show.
the knuckles are bloodied and already puffy on both hands - she's never had a preference for swinging one over the other - but she gives it up by the time wash's feet hit her landing. they hurt and they will hurt, but it's nothing, really. just a sensation that feels a little better than just leaving for dragging her out of her head. her arm trembles just a touch with his grip on her wrist, but it has more to do with the tension she's barely keeping contained within herself than her actual hands.
she opens her mouth to scream about how goddamn unfair this all is, to still be haunted by the worst things that came out of project freelancer, but they're not alone. she snaps her lips shut and inhales hard through her nose, composes herself enough to look at ginia. ]
I'm sure it doesn't look it - [ there's a tremble in her voice, too, something between rage and tears. ] - But I'm grateful for your help, Angela.
