[She visibly flinches, as if the words sting against her skin. Mouth dropping open, she has nothing to say. In truth, her life is nothing but settled. Perhaps it seems that way to Emma by comparison, but for Faye, she feels like she's grasping at straws to regain the small amounted stability she had gathered in her time with the Knights.

And look what it got her.
Pushing herself to her feet, tears burn at the corners of her eyes, her throat tight. She knows that any attempt to speak will give away that weakness. So instead of saying anything at all, she turns and leaves. It's only once she's far enough away to believe she's out of earshot that she lets out the sob she's been holding back. The entire reason she had kept Jordan's bottle was to try to think of a way to keep the people she cared about safe. Emma was right. She had the key to solving all of this, but what price would they all have paid for the answer? Despite knowing that, she's been doubting her decision ever since finding out about Emma's curse- and now she's been called out on that.]
