"Ah." Natasha's eyes move to Jasper's face when she hears Alice's sigh, and she doesn't need any heightened abilities to see that he's calming her down in some way. The touch to his face with Alice's careful hand only confirms it, and Natasha starts to play with her hair, pulling it back and brushing her fingers through the short strands. "Well. Aro can take his excuses and politely shove them, because he's not getting you." She says it with certainty, and to seal her promise she presses a swift kiss to Alice's cheek. "Not after I've just managed to find you, I think I've had enough injustice for one life, hmm?"

When Alice looks up at her Natasha smiles, warm and what she hopes to be reassuring. "I'll be turned. I'd rather not fight but I'm not going to back down if one is necessary, it's not really my style." She looks at Jasper once more, eyes lingering on his face. "We're going to want to talk to Carlisle about it as soon as he gets here though, the sooner I turn and adjust the better." Natasha feels a twist of discomfort in her stomach, but it's directed at herself and nothing else.

She looks back at Alice, her smile restrained and almost sad this time. "I don't really know how I'm going to handle that much power, I have control but..." she trials off, her stare going through the woman for a second before her eyes flicker back into focus and her smile forcefully returns. "I just think it would be better to give myself time to adjust." She's already lethal and it hasn't gotten her memories that she wants to keep. Natasha isn't certain that her new decision will make that much better, but she knows that it's necessary. That's what matters.

"I told you. No more of that." She shifts, leaning back into the couch more comfortably and dragging Alice with her. "I'm not afraid of a little conflict, we'll handle it. For now," She nudges Jasper's leg with the tip of her foot, "distractions. Music, cards - no cards." She corrects suddenly with narrowed eyes at Alice. "You probably cheat."
