Maybe?

[There's no guaranteee of that though, because she still has to deal with it.]

It's not going to change it, though, so I'm still going to have to carry it.

There's no escaping that. [There's an edge in her voice as she says it because sadly she learned that lesson far too young.]

How about this? If I can't figure it out by the time we're done sparring, I'll ask.

[Helena nods in the affirmative. Once they hit the mat, she gets into her usual stance. Her right hand is up with the palm facing out. Her right foot follows with the rest of her braced back for balance. The invitation is clear in her body language. Since Helena has the task of figuring Laurel out, the other woman gets the first move.]

[Generally Laurel is the same, wanting to take the time to get a better idea of her opponent, especially when sparring, but right now the frustration needs to go somewhere, so she lashes out, swinging not too hard, but hard enough.]
