[ It hurts, but it's distracting and it's better like this because she doesn't have time to think and she needs that. When she stops, she thinks. When she's laying down, she's thinking. When she's falling asleep, she's thinking - and then she can't sleep.
So, it's better like this.
She doesn't have time to pin Shepard down; there's an explosion of white pain up her nose and rattles her teeth to the back of her skull. She feels all the hot blood running down her mouth when she bites her cheek with the impact. But she doesn't think about it, because she doesn't want to think, and her hands fly out quickly in that close range, pulling a fist down on her jaw, the other hand gripping her shoulder to pull her closer so she can try to keep her in place, all anger and dirty fighting. There's no learning here at all. ]
