Sometimes he wondered about Thea and her upbringing. Was it just as harmful as her own had been? At this day in age she had the notion that her father never loved her and that he only saw her as a tool, a means to an end that he looked upon with disdain whenever she failed him. Her want for his love, her own ambitions and competitive nature clouded her to the truth and the fact of what he was doing. She'd lashed out at Texas and now... Her mind rebelled against her thoughts and she closed her eyes for a moment, taking deep breaths to try and calm herself. Everything was taken away from her. Everything. Her paws twitched and she tried not to tap her claws. She could beat this. Her gaze opened up, dull ambers focusing on the child once again before she dipped her head in greeting. "Hey kid, you shouldn't be out here alone? Especially since you are recovering." Not when she'd just been captured not too long ago.
Her gaze flicked away and focused on the treeline not that far off before she turned her attention back on Thea once more. Well, her plans weren't really secret secret. Everyone trained and fought though Carolina trained much too hard but she couldn't allow herself to rest. That wouldn't be productive and wouldn't help her if she had to take on Washington one day or even Texas herself. "Just heading off to do some training. I'm assuming you'd like to tag along since you have a fighting spirit." The woman had never really been a couch, she pushed too hard and forced too much on others but she supposed the kid could watch her if she really wanted to come with her.
