Aurelia
How come silence is so loud in the shadows?
I wanna scream 'til it's on
I wanna scream 'til it's on
Aurelia cocks her head to one side curiously, not matching his chuckle with any amount of humor but rather confusion. "If you weren't human, what were you?" She asks, her tone almost cautious. It has a rather negative connotation, that phrasing, but Sah seems as if he's not a bad person so she has to wonder what it could possibly mean.
Her eyebrows raise a fraction with the realization of what Sah means by 'physical'. Metaphysics isn't a subject she's familiar with. Aurelia is not the... philosophical type, unfortunately for this conversation. She has often been steeped in logic and reality, harsh is it is, and has had to deal with the repercussions of things that can be plainly seen, plainly felt. Souls? It's not as if the subject doesn't interest her... but...
"What you say may be true," she says, tone softening for just a moment before she grows guarded again, "but I can't dwell on things that are not plain to see. Any one of our actions at any point might hurt someone, whether that's.. emotionally or in their soul, as you say. But we can't base what we do around that. We can't control how people feel, so.. there is no use in stressing over it." She sighs heavily, because already this is setting a tremendous weight on her mind.
"Consider this. I could have killed Hotaru, if I so chose to turn my magic against her. There was a reason I didn't do that, it was not all.. impulse. Would it be worse to kill a person or to kill a companion?" Her brows furrow and her chin inclines towards him slightly.

Tell my feet they should run
but they don't follow
but they don't follow
