"A giant mindfuck." It's acid and bitter, and she hurts like she just got blown apart and put back together twice.
She's not okay with this. With Will's congratulations or with Biggie going off undercover alone (he is, obviously, because no way he'd get past Magnus a second time) or the fact somehow it's more important to get back to this Garris than stick around and see Biggie through.
Her fingers clench against the emotional sandblasting and she'd be a lot more awkward about that being his shirt they're curled in if she couldn't feel his heart pounding as hard as hers. She lets go and pulls back in on herself, making herself okay, and lifting her gaze to meet his. "That bracelet showed up here last month. I thought..." She shrugs like so what but it's a lie so big even she can't make herself belief it. "I thought it was from Declan. But no. So I turned it in to the IPD. Guess it's mine. Guess..."
Kate guesses a lot of things, and she's not sure how to feel about any of them, so she offers up a sheepish little smile, deflecting. "Guess it's kind of weird that I'm more worked up about that than getting blown up, huh?"
