He might think he sounded dumb, but she felt dumb herself. She was in the machine, she should know what it was, and why she was in it, but... nothing. It was actually a little frightening, to not know -anything- but your own name. No, that wasn't entirely true. She could feel magic in her, and she remembered seeing a sword beside her in the machine, so she felt she could at least fight.
... that...doesn't make her feel better though.
"Magitek?" ...that doesn't ring a bell either. Though her confusion traded itself for distress at the question, "I- I was?" And yet he was helping her out of it. "I'm sorry..." A slight shake of her head, "I don't remember.. anything." She was a (former) member of the Empire though, she COULD be lying, or a very good actress right? ... though nothing seemed feigned.
This doesn't seem like an Imperial tactic. Maybe Noctis is too naive, too young, a touch too trusting, but he doesn't believe that the Empire would plant a young woman here to feign injury and memory loss to get at him. She doesn't even seem to know who he is, much to his relief.
"Weird."
Noctis. That isn't helpful.
"Sorry," he murmurs apologetically, rubbing the back of his neck. "You shouldn't be sorry, I just – I'm trying to figure out what we should do. D'you have any injuries? Anything hurt?"
Weird.. it definitely was. "..." It was also extremely unhelpful, but she was as much at a loss as he was. Though she wasn't sure what she could do to help him figure out what to do next. "Um... I saw a weapon on the seat in that machine.. the Magitek. Should I get it?" Wlll she need it? She'd feel a teensy bit better with it, if only because it was something ..kind of familiar.
"No, I think I'm ..ah.." she winced suddenly, putting a hand to her head, "Just my head.."
