"Most people prefer to avoid being stabbed at all," Billie points out but that's that. She's still watching the bird and the rabbit, the former hopping back again when the kick is aimed her way. Naturally, Deirdre is ignoring her, so watching is going to become acting as she turns to walk over there.

"I said come on," she tells the tern, aiming a kick of her own at her animas. It's nothing forceful, just enough to nudge the bird and force her into taking off, startled and scolding Billie from the air the entire way. "Not much else left here to do if he's taking off with that no matter what."
