It can't be both?

[ She smiles and, after a beat, decides to be kind. ]

I know you'd be fine. Bad luck happens to all of us.

[the answer manages to coax a laugh out of him at that as he cants his head to the side]

So it does.

I'd rather that it hit me than you at any moment, I suppose.

[ She opens her mouth, closes it.

She frowns because it's not like it's something she wouldn't say herself. ]

You needn't worry. It's difficult for anything like that to stick to me, so please work on avoiding bad luck yourself.

[ As if that's something that can be done somehow. ]

[recrowns]

I'll be cautious where I can, I suppose...

But I wouldn't be too worried. I've been called rather resilient at times, you know?

[sure]

[discernments]

I'll believe it. I'll choose to believe it until you show me otherwise.

[ She's so sincere and straightforward about this.

But that doesn't mean she still won't worry. ]

Then I'll do my best to uphold your faith in me, Jeanne. Thank you for trusting me with it.

[discernments]

I have faith that you will, if you're as resilient as you say you are.

[ She's just going to heap on more and more faith. ]
