[Beatrix responds only accordingly as she must. In her role, she must play support. An implication that she is sturdy, secure. Stable. Reliable. In the place of the lead, for just a moment, it feels empowering. Perhaps the same empowerment she gets from being Alexandria's general. There is no doubt that such a position comes with prestige, power, and influence. Even in a dance, Beatrix feels connected to the weight of that title. Even in this world.

For some moments, she simply lingers on Tifa's question, as oft appears to be habitual of her. Answers given in haste are frequently irrational. Of all things, she prides herself on being meticulous and thoughtful. Considerate, even if a bit cold.]

I am not inclined to agree with you, Lady Tifa. [She begins with care.] Even if things are not outright dangerous yet, it would be foolish to think it will always be so. It would be more advantageous to be prepared. Not necessarily to expect the worst, but to not become complacent in these days or these times.

[It's not an answer at all. A typical evasion on Beatrix's part, perhaps. But it does provide insight. A thought process.]
