Before the island, Saffron had never killed a person directly. Caused all kinds of deaths, sure, and knowingly, but she'd never actually done the deed with her own two hands. Now she didn't even know how many lives she'd ended. She wasn't regretful about it, though - they'd been Reavers, and with them it was always kill or be killed - killed, and much worse. Dealing with them twice in one day, though, was a bit much. Even more so because she'd finally gotten to a point a while back where she was secure in the thought that they weren't coming back.
At least she wasn't going to have any more nightmares about Halloween three years ago. No, now she was going to have nightmares about this Halloween.
She wanted to talk to Sawyer about his part in the ordeal, about what he'd seen, and not just because he'd rutting shot her. Not just because she was curious about how forthcoming he would be, either. That needed to wait, though. Unless for some reason he felt inclined to spill his guts right then and there, that was a talk best had after at least an attempt at a good night's sleep.
"Don't wander off and get lost now," she called after him, and her voice was light, but she meant it; she didn't want him going anywhere. She didn't want him leaving her alone there. She also didn't know if he would listen to her.
