That was the most expedient way.

But he was hurt!

You cannot always avoid injuries in situations like this.

[She knows it's unreasonable, but she's standing firm on this point.]

But there must be a way to minimize the injury!

He is not dead. That is as much consideration I could spare him since you had put yourself in harm's way.

[Veronica draws herself back on hearing that, eyes wide because she hadn't thought of it. She hadn't even thought twice about putting herself in harm's way because it had only seemed logical, to protect in whatever way possible.]

If that was your aim, there are better ways you could have accomplished it. What did you think would happen if you had gotten hurt because you were protecting someone else?

[protectthecastle]

I...had not thought about it.
