Annalise speaking startles Ava, breaking her concentration entirely. Thankfully she wasn't too worried about it at this point, the worst of it all having passed by this point. "It's not mine," The lie comes out of her before she can even begin to think of something else to say. Arguably, saying that was worse than just admitting she had been through the wringer, but the last thing Ava needed right now was someone fussing over her.
It wasn't that bad of a wound, all things considered. Worse had happened, and worse would continue to happen to her. "I'm fine." Which was true. By this point, the only thing Ava was worried about was her magic slowing down and making the healing process take longer than it already had. "See? All good." To try and prove her point, she stands up, arms going out as she does a quick turn around. "Don't- I don't wanna talk about it."
