[Ema stares at him for several moments. She can't help but wonder what could have happened to transform Keane into Schuldig. The kid was distant and wary, yes, but not actively cruel or angry. Had it just been prolonged exposure to Rosenkrüs' methods, or had there been a specific trigger?
She quickly shakes the thought. One, she knows Schuldig's privy to the thought and is likely to take offense at her curiosity, even as it happens on almost a purely innate level. Two, she's still pretty certain she doesn't want to know. Keane's descriptions were vague; she's pretty sure the reality of it is worse.
The pout and indignant response that he likely would have gotten under any other circumstances never comes. Instead, Ema just shifts her weight uncomfortably.]
