"You haven't," Iman affirms with a sharp nod at Daine - thank fuck for this girl. And she's done it before - this exact thing? Perfect. She has a moment, a beautiful moment, of excitement, meeting Daine with a conspiratorial grin, but of course not, of course that can't last. Rush is still playing his stupid game.

She turns back on him, outraged again. "I don't care!" she explodes. She flings an arm toward Daine. "Here's someone who's done this exact thing before and she's still standing and she's willing to do it again, are you just going to ignore that? What is wrong with you?!"

She draws herself back again. He's trying to agitate her, she thinks, maybe trying to make her want to leave him, well fuck that, fuck him, all he's gonna do is make him want to save him more, that'll show him, the prick. "We will find a way to beat them," she says coldly. "I don't need you telling me I'm brilliant, I know I'm brilliant. What you're really telling me here is you think I'm a coward. You think I'd put myself above you. Who the fuck was it that made you think you weren't worth saving? Because I'm not them."

She's done with him. She turns away, fixing her full attention on Daine. "We'll do it together," she says. "I can find him whether or not he wants me to. How did you do it before?"
