Claire was quiet for a moment, staring at him. She wanted so badly to believe she wasn't a freak. Lyle's words still rang in her ears and in all honesty it still hurt. The thought of being in a place where other people had abilities should be comforting, but it wasn't. Maybe she was in shock, that had to be it. Her eyes began to sting, and she looked away for a moment, blinking furiously. There was no way she was going to allow herself to cry, not now at least, especially not in front of Loki, she'd wait until she was alone.
She nodded slightly, looking back at him. "Honestly, it's gonna take a while for me to believe that." Besides, didn't that mean there were just a group of freaks here? She scratched at the blood which had dried onto her scalp, for a split second she wondered how long she'd have to wash her hair to get all the blood out - or how long it would take for her to feel clean again.
"How long have you been here?" she asked, switching topics. Getting information was more important right now, otherwise she was just going to get emotional and then mad at herself for getting emotional - never a good combination.
