[ Ethlyn's tacit approval honestly startles Toph, who wasn't expecting anything of that nature -- maybe especially not from Ethlyn -- and it throws her for a moment. Still on edge and with no way to vent her restless energy from being in danger, it makes her gruff in her response. ]

I warned him a couple times and it seemed like he wasn't in control -- I wasn't gonna just stand there. [ Practical and down to earth to a fault, that's Toph. ]

I don't want an apology, [ she snaps huffily at Minato, inadvertently interrupting Ethlyn's attempts to actually check on her patient. She's seen it enough times by now to basically ignore the magic healing and get right to the point. ]

I want you to stop being an idiot. How did this even happen?!

[ Could this really just come out of nowhere? From working with Shinjiro, Toph would think this kind of thing can be anticipated and worked on. Has Minato just been keeping issues with his Persona to himself, silently, expecting them to go away? She doesn't appreciate being put in danger from a friend without warning and she especially doesn't appreciate any resulting attempts to wave it off with a simple sorry. ]
