Letha stiffens a bit as Ivar touches her, and belatedly pulls away to hold her arm loosely. She wants his affection - she wants it desperately - but without knowing exactly where he stands at any moment has her nervous about it. Particularly after her last conversation with Lola.
"Is there anyone else she doesn't hurt? Or just you?" There's something in her tone that implies she's asking about a specific person.
And meanwhile, a ladybug has landed on Winter's leg while she was looking around for a new butterfly. She stares at it inquisitively, before the insect seems to shrivel slightly and fall to the ground. The grass around her is also starting to wilt, now that she's been sitting there long enough. It's noticeable enough now that Letha stiffens a bit more, radiating discomfort.
