Leeloo didn't ask again, when Peter said what she did, but her eyes stayed on Eric all the same. And, to her relief, he answered her - albeit silently, albeit quietly. 'Thank you,' she mouthed to her best friend. She gave him a grateful smile, then looked up when Bran circled her.
Unspoken heaviness weighted the air around them. She wanted very much to say hello to Eric; it did not feel right that Peter was holding her while Eric waited. But at the same time, doing anything else at this moment did not seem right, either. Unease was settling more heavily on her, for many reasons. Something was not right, though Eric assured her that nothing was wrong.
She opened her mouth to ask about what the two of them had been doing before they found her - and then closed it again, remembering the request Peter'd given her not 10 seconds before. No questions. Leeloo sucked her lips behind her teeth and held very still, tension filling her.
