Aisha gulped, realizing the trap she’d just stepped into. “You can hear me?”
Trap, you say…
Also, I suppose she hears Aisha in more than one way, although Aisha probably doesn’t know about how Cherish’s power manifests for her.
A second passed, and there was no response.
“Put it away, or I’m going to leave you quivering in a corner, shitting your pants.”
Sounds unpleasant.
“You can’t hear me.” Aisha gripped her weapon and stepped closer.
Well, not quite, apparently. Not in the mundane way, at least.
Maybe she’s bluffing? Perhaps she heard the emotions of the people upstairs, figured there was an invisible enemy around that would be using a bladed weapon, and is now just saying this in case Aisha’s there?
…but that sounds much less likely than her being able to partially sense Aisha.
