"Ah, oh, sorry." Victoria removed her hand from the man's shoulder when he made to move away from her, and held it up for a few moments as she decided if she should follow him. It probably wasn't a good idea, he appeared to still have some life in him yet and it was very possible that in his state he could lash out. She knew if she was in his position she would do everything possible to defend herself. She could not blame the man. With a soft sigh she dropped her hands back to her knees when the woman on the other side of the cage piped up.
For the first part of her little outburst Victoria chose not to look at the woman, instead staring ahead and rolling her eyes. She knew the logic in her words, but the more the woman pushed the issue the less she wanted to go through with it. Besides, could she actually do it? Perhaps if he were a threat, but it didn't seem like he meant any harm, and he was injured, what much could he do to them? But the longer the woman went on, the more frustrated she became with her.
"Would you just shut the fuck up?" Victoria held her tongue for long enough, and after a few moments of seething in silence, finally burst. She could understand her concerns about the injured man, but to continue on and make comments about her appearance was what really set Victoria off. What was she suggesting saying she was dressed as if she were kept for something special? Sure, her clothes were fashionable and expensive but neither was she dressed like some High street prostitute. Like Anya, she was wearing jeans, perhaps a bit tight, but still jeans. Her boots may not have been practical for this land, but how was she to know to wear her hiking boots to the clinic? Her jacket was down filled, which would be nice for a colder climate, and underneath was a teal v-neck cashmere sweater which was probably ruined after her fall in the swamp.
"No I'm not pretending, and no I'm not going to eat him!" Her volume rose the more she spoke, and the more she spoke the angrier she became. "and who the fuck made you Queen of everything to decide wether he can live or not?"
She drew her bag close upon seeing the other eyeing it, then tossed the other one over to the man, assuming it was his. Victoria had not had a chance to go though the sack, and so had no idea if she had been given rations or not. She certainly could not remember being told any such thing, even if she was she was not about to let anyone know about it. Wasn't there anyone in this group that she could actually trust? Where were the others that she saw? If they were anything like this woman they would be long gone by now, she hoped this wasn't the case and that they were going to come and save them.
