That hadn't been at all what she'd meant, but they could get to that later. When he showed her how things worked in a few hours, she could bring it up again. When she understood things a little better, perhaps.

In the meantime. "How sound-proofed are your quarters?" she asked him, wishing she didn't have to bring it up but not at all willing to take chances. "I don't sleep well. Sometimes I- Sometimes I wake up screaming. If there's a chance someone might hear, I'll gag myself before I try to rest."

It wasn't an experience she relished, but it wouldn't be the first time she'd had to do it. The war had pushed them all to their limits, demanded rather extreme measures be taken to ensure their safety. When it had still been the soldiers they'd been hiding from, she'd done it willingly, but she didn't know how things might have changed later when Sentinels were the main force - she'd been captured around that time.
