[ Yeah, Adora wants to get away from her. Shadow Weaver is the only thing in the Horde that still frightens her, deep down, and not just because of her history with the woman. Hordak and Catra can torture her, or kill her, but they can't make her into something she's not; can't wipe her memory until she's nothing but a brainwashed attack dog for the Horde, then turn her against everyone she loves. Adora isn't scared of dying (she tells herself), but she is scared of hurting her friends, Catra included. ]

She's still dangerous, Catra. Don't get too cocky. [ She scolds, but there's a tiny smile accompanying it; soft and fond. Catra might not remember giving her back the sword, but Adora has at least one reason to trust her when it comes to Shadow Weaver. ] You're the one who said she'd come after us. We both need to stay on our guard.

[ Not just against her, either. Back in the Crystal Castle, Catra said Shadow Weaver had bigger problems to worry about, which Adora took as a sign of Hordak's involvement in things. She's never seen him take the field, but his position and the occasional hushed whispers among the other cadets are enough to know facing him head-on would probably be a bad idea. If he shows up... she hopes She-Ra will be enough to protect everyone, no matter the cost to herself.

Her hand seeks out Catra's tail, running along the length of it in one smooth, gentle stroke; thanking her for the reassurance. Then, after a quick sniff to clear her throat, she's back to raising a playful eyebrow at her best friend. ]


Are you ever gonna get down from there? She-Ra is supposed to be an [ in an overly dramatic voice: ] ancient warrior Princess. I'm pretty sure using her as a surveillance post is against the rules.
