Patchouli was trying to refrain from saying anything she'd regret later. Though Millay probably couldn't hear, there was still the possibility. "It wasn't his fault," she muttered quietly. She wasn't sure that this would do anything, but she was hopeful. She did wonder why Millay seemed to not react to Patchouli much. She turned her attention back to Millay. For a moment, she searched for a query to give to the woman. Finally, she came up with something.
