[This would all be good to hear coming from an adult he found himself cooperating with in a fight. But he really doesn't know how to feel about hearing it from this petite teenage girl.
Realistically, he shouldn't be bothered. All scions are taught to defend themselves early on, and he was probably around her age when he had to start getting involved in risky shit. Still, just because he did it doesn't mean he wishes it on anyone else. Especially not right now, when the unknown lying ahead is leaving such a sick feeling in the pit of his stomach.
His jaw tightens a little and his eyes drop back to the bin of supplies.]

I'd prefer you not do that either.
