(That last comment stings. She knows that Beau is being logical; and how many times has Yasha tried to warn Mollymauk off of using Blood Maledict while already injured? He's too reckless, he's careless, he throws himself in his entirety into battle. He will do anything to keep the people that he cares for safe.)
He protected you, (she says. She can't look at Beau, she can't– do this. She wants to leave, she wants to go.
It's also tempting to turn it back. To tell Beau that she had leapt for Lorenzo without looking first, had gone after the bigger fight as per usual. If she hadn't picked a battle she was certain to lose, Mollymauk would not have thrown his life away to let her keep hers. Yasha can feel the words bubbling at the back of her throat like acid. She says nothing, she bites the insides of her cheeks, and turns to walk away.)
