Monk stood silent as he gave her space to vent, tensing up as she mentioned what happened to Skywarp. Maybe the latter was fine now, but Monk had had a feeling she had been omitting something when she told him how she was.
But even as he listened to her words, he was caught up in his own thoughts. He'd been right. Chill and Skywarp had acted like it was nothing, but he was right. Monk could barely spend time on Ekosi without being in danger, and they went to the heart of council space. He wasn't much for strategizing or making plans but even he could see what a bad idea this was.
"You shouldn't have gone," he muttered eventually, as if this was an immutable fact. He looked up, meeting her gaze. "None of you should have. I'm grateful for the outcome whether it was for me or not, but it wasn't worth the risk."
"I'm sorry about Skywarp, I wouldn't have expected her to run like that, or to push you away. Whenever we have spoken she has always put you above all."
