Yue glanced at James, putting her hand on his arm briefly before turning back to Laurel and nodding.

James complained, not wanted to be left out of their conversation, but Laurel practically slammed the door to the conference room on James' nose.

"... That's a little harsh," Yue noted.

"He's annoying," Laurel stated bluntly as she turned and sat down, "And coming from you, that a little ironic."

"You're in a bad mood," Yue noted as she took a seat.

"Nic just left," Laurel stated blankly, "Off to find Kale who seems to have gotten lost on some island."

Yue didn't seem all that surprised or all that worried.

Laurel was drumming her fingers on the table and staring off into space.

After a long moment of silence Yue offered, "He can take care of himself."

Laurel turned and glared at Yue a bit, "You think I want to talk to you about Nic?" she asked, "Why the terra would I come to you about anything regarding Nic?"

"... I am his sister," Yue noted.

Laurel smirked, "Oh, that. Yeah, and why did you roll up in the first place again?" she mused, "Being all clinging and lovey-dovey to Nic out of the blue?"

Yue didn't reply.

"Thought so," Laurel replied a little cruelly. "Regardless, that's not why I wanted to talk to you." She leaned in a little, "Do you trust them?" she asked.

"... Them?" Yue asked.

"The neonates," Laurel replied, "Do you trust them?"
