What Guin didn't appear to realize is that her attempt to stop anyone from seeing her fear was exactly what tipped off an observant eye like OfAll's, who caught the self-harm action. Immediately OfAll regretted suggesting Guin as a possible best choice to approach Mary first. OfAll knew Guin had been off since their last mission, but who of them hadn't been affected? OfAll had a sudden sense she was missing some bigger picture here.

As Guin and Pietro exchanged about Annie using her powers gently, OfAll second guessed having brought the idea up at all. She hadn't realized Annie's powers fell into the category of what Mary would be able to feel --not that it would happen to matter one way or the other, what with Gambit deciding to go forward just then, without waiting for Annie's Intuition.

While he did that, OfAll spoke in a low tone to Pietro -a gentle reprimand: [color=gold]"Pietro, what did we agree on -that's not how we should be approaching this situation."[/color] She was referring to his "ticking time bomb" mentality. 

[color=gold]"Maybe you should take something of a second line position further back, since you can get here in an instant anyway. Guin,"[/color] she had just turned her eyes towards Guin, thinking to tactfully suggest she go with him, when OfAll heard Bethany's voice.

What [i]had[/i] their team agreed on?

Next came Perry's collapse and firm confirmation they shouldn't be collectively approaching her right now --OfAll didn't know if that meant even Gambit should move back. She only addressed the others: [color=gold]"Let's all move ourselves back,"[/color] still speaking in a low tone. Mild, yet no-nonsense.

As Perry was currently grounded, OfAll didn't step much more away than where she and Annie were, though suited her actions to her own words that far. 

Antoinette's thought seemed sound -if only OfAll wasn't now having a sense of reservation towards Guin's own emotional state. Though surely Annie or Perry could perceive that, too, yet perhaps not without expressly focusing on Guin, and/or not with what must've felt like the noise of Mary's emotions around them. [color=gold]"If that seems best. . ."[/color] OfAll started, briefly meeting Guin's eyes in a gentle "cue" of assessment, certain the last thing Guin would want is to be counterintuitive to her best friend's safety --and everyone else's through extension, [color=gold]"try and have her focus on that space with all her senses,"[/color] OfAll was back to addressing both Guin and Annie, [color=gold]"the feel of it, the sound. That can help ground someone out of their head sometimes."[/color]

For her own part, OfAll started to glance around, taking in the flowers and foliage around them. Not to remember the scenery while she still could, but out of a potential plan to manifest Mary's botanical powers again to possibly cancel hers out if she tried to attack them. OfAll had been most comfortable with those of all powers manifested over the course of their last mission. She just needed to get familiar with what specific plants were nearby so she could best utilize them. No doubt Mary already [i]that [/i]advantage over her -at [i]least[/i].
