[Tau whimpered at her fake brother's last words. She figured whatever Akutagawa was doing with his clothes would destroy the fake. She was really glad that Leo hid her view, but his hand was most definitely wet now. What she wasn't expecting was for Leo to keep that hand there.]

[Tau was trembling at the threat. She knew that any of the experiments here could cause some real damage, if not make good on their threats, even to her big brother. She was willing to trust these two almost strangers once with her and potentially her big brother's safety once. But between being reminded of what Terrel could and would be willing to do, and the direct threat to her brother by someone she knew could probably make good on it, she wasn't willing to try again.]

T-Tau...Tau will stay...Tau will stay...so please...do not...
