[ Any doubts, any hesitations on her part go unnoticed. She's committed. This is something she's planned to do. It's been thought out well in advance, from specific method to having to actually make the trek out here. At any point she could have decided no, called it off. Hell, she still could.
And she isn't. She's not going to. So who is he to question things — especially against someone capable of taking the lead like this? Someone he knows is intelligent, he knows is committed, he knows will stop at nothing to get their ultimate goal done. There are others in his ranks where he assumes, but with Ciel, he knows. They have too much in common for him not to.
So. It's okay. ]
That's not so bad. Gonna suck for her for a few days, but if she's none the wiser then it's not like she's gonna have anything to worry about after. Hell, if she decides she needs to upgrade maybe she'll come out of this better than before.
[ Because they're going to leave money, too. She's at least getting something out of this.
It's more than Amos would have thought to do. If he'd been instructed to do something like this, he would've probably just killed her. Brought her body back. Showed Rand what real consequences look like.
... It'd probably do a better job of breaking him. It's. It's maybe not a bad idea, if things ever go far south enough to necessitate it. Just as Ciel is capable of this, he knows that wouldn't be a problem for him.
Just never would've occurred to him on his own is all.
Amos keeps an eye out as the makings of a space for food stalls comes into sight. They can still technically turn back; the both of them know they aren't going to. ]
