The moment Evan landed on the surface and released Eliza, he was about to continue walking forward, but she reached out, grabbed his hand, pulled him back, and asked, her voice filled with worry, "Evan, are you okay?"
Evan blinked, confused. "Huh? Where's this coming from?"
Taking a deep breath, she continued, "That wasn't like you just now. What happened? You're not usually this forceful. It felt less like you were trying to get Sloth to join the plan and more like you were sending a message or something…"
She seemed unable to find the words to explain what she meant, and at this, Evan blinked again before chuckling.
"Sending a message, huh? Yeah, maybe there was a bit of that in my intentions. As for being forceful, well, we don't have much in the way of time, and if that's the fastest way to achieve what I want, then I'll do it."
He wasn't above using coercion to get what he needed to accomplish his goals, after all.
