It explained things. It explained... a lot. Fred was in some kind of weird shock where she was processing things on a level inversely proportional to how much they actually mattered to her. Of course if there'd been any chance at all of getting her back -- and of course it would be Wesley who would fight the hardest for her, she always knew he was just that little bit more ruthless than the rest of them and --
-- well of course he loved me, I loved all my boys and I wonder if she even knows what the word means in all contexts I mean let's not jump to wild, crazy conclusions here, Fred --
"I... have to go now."
That one phrase was all she could manage out loud. Any more information was just going to have to wait until she could handle talking to this... whatever she was, that had more knowledge about way-too-personal things that Fred would rather contemplate in private and when she was not trying to work out the question of staying alive. Except--
"You should stay away from Wesley. I don't care what else you do here, but-- if any of what you just said matters to you? Stay away from him."
With that last parting shot said, all her nerve evaporated at once and Fred fled out the door and down the hall, and didn't stop til she was back in her own room several floors away.
