[Silco nodded his head as he considered the information; he had his own version of events from the bouncer mostly. He didn't know Ange well, but he had interacted with her enough to understand some of her reactions and motivations to other people.]
I expect her seriousness is a defense mechanism given how she is treated back in her own world; she is someone who is used to working and being alone for the most part. [He tipped his head so his chin was closer to his chest as he observed Jinx fiddling with his button.] When you're used to being alone and someone comes along that may fill that void, one can be... ah, overreactive.
[He was making an educated guess from experience, of course. He understood the swing of reaction, but he wasn't certain Jinx did.]
You come along and insert yourself as you do, fill that void even briefly for her so she reacts out in a sense of self-defense. Then you pulled away after her outburst, and she found herself alone once more. It was a give and take moment for her likely, Jinx.
