Daine can't frown in this shape, but her gaze is sharp as she sizes up the other selkies. Considering how the fair folk have been behaving of late, she doesn't think she'll have any luck reasoning with this lot. It would come to a fight, likely as not. There are more than she fancies taking on single-handedly, and she doesn't think it'd be fair or effective to ask the seals to help. And Saoirse might get hurt in the ruction.
Mithros, but this is a mess.
The last thing Daine wants to do is frighten Saoirse, so after thinking hard for a minute, she says, Well, that's silly. It sounds like they're acting up the way the other fair folk are.
Of course, she doesn't want to lie to Saoirse, either. I don't think it would be smart for me to try and fight them by myself, Daine tells her, making sure the others don't overhear. And I don't think it'd be fair to ask the seals to help me. You might need to stay with them for a little while until we can come up with a plan.
