"He reached out to me," she corrects, shrugging lightly. The secrets of the mirror or what's happening here hardly matter to her. It's the personal details of herself that make her wary.
She suspects why it might be safest with her, but she's not sure how the Merchant would know that. But he seems to know far more than he should about everyone, so... Winnie purses her lips and then mirrors Five's pose, taking a deep breath and sighing softly. For whatever reason, it seems very important to Five that he knows these things about her.
There's nothing she can think of to exchange though. After a moment of silence she tilts her head, the smile gone from her face, her expression one of cool observance. "I'd like the answer to a few question. Simple ones, I promise, because I'm only curious." A pause for dramatic effect before she asks simply, "why do you want to know so badly? It bothers you, doesn't it, not knowing. Why can't you accept that I may be ordinary?"
