[Skulduggery's head tilt does not go unnoticed; while she can't tell for sure his exact meaning from it (the lack of a face to read certainly makes it difficult), she wonders if the number of assailants is significant.
She finds herself unsurprised that Xion believes her attacker wasn't afraid or confused, even though she hasn't considered it before. It's something she's been assuming, rather, given the man brought a gun with him. He had attacked her, and that was not something done out of fear, especially when armed.]
It doesn't sound like he was afraid.
[Her voice is slightly edged with a low anger. Everything she knows about the attack so far indicates to her a kedan willing to shoot and harm a young girl; not someone easily scared.
She reaches over and tugs a pillow up behind Xion, to give the girl a more comfortable brace.]
