War kept still as she thought swiftly. Clearly, she had the demon in a fix, if he was having to call on Adam; equally clearly, Adam wouldn't be impressed by the situation - even if she hadn't actually hurt the demon, he had told her not to cause trouble, and if the root story was true - what did she know about plants? - then he wasn't likely to be impressed by her attempts to defend the cat. Loki might have asked her to defend the animal, but she was fairly sure he didn't intend her to get thrown out the Manor doing it - maybe when he was well he'd be up to double bluffing her like that, but at the moment he really wasn't up to it. Besides, she didn't want to get thrown out the Manor, and ever since the barbecue that seemed to be what she'd brought herself to.
"Alright," she said reluctantly, her lps narrowed, "I'll put the cat down. But you're not to reach out for her, she stays by me 'til this is sorted. I'll put the gun down too, and we can talk. Agreed?" Even without a weapon in her hand, War would hardly be defenceless.
