She pulls her head up again, though it takes a great deal of effort. Usually, she'd be wary and probably willing to fight. But she can't find any of that just now.
"Huh? No, I...shit. I'm not hurt, I just..." She trails off, struggling to try to explain what the hell she's doing sitting here on the freezing grass. She can't even explain it to herself.
