Though it didn't mean much, she opened her eyes and leaned away from him with a wobble, but she remained on her feet.
"Yes," she said after a few seconds of testing her balance. She looked toward the weak red outline of his figure and as much as she wanted to lean against a wall or a table - anything that could support her tired limbs - she took his question as more of an instruction than a concern. She was determined to stand on her own, so she carried her weight carefully and tried to keep track of him.
As much as she had the intense desire to help him, she refrained. It wasn't so much related to the fact she couldn't see, because she kind of could (but one of them would probably lose a hand), but she just didn't have the energy to make that thought connect to a physical action. While she let idle thoughts wander about to the idea of him helping her, it had her thinking of what she now knew. Silence was all she had in hand, even when he finally had food ready for them to eat. She sat next to him and ate quietly.
She couldn't get much down but she did her best. What she really wanted to do was sleep, so she looked at Kiyotaka, unable to turn her chest to actually see him, and reached out to her side to get his attention. One swing, miss, second swing, nope, third, right into the side of his head. There we go.
