[Kamala falls into a rare bout of silence. It is validating to hear Five say that because he doesn't mince words with anyone from her perspective. He says what he means. That's invaluable to an insecure teenage girl who can never be sure where she stands with anyone. It would be easy to explain she only knows because she learned the hard way once but, what's the point? Five already is aware of that story. She can only accept what he has to say.

She nods softly and elaborates,] That's what the Merchant was saying. He's scared of us now and thought he could use me to manipulate everyone else. Not sure why I was his choice, but whatever. I'm not trying to one-hundred percent get all the evil schemes going on here.

[She crosses her arms, visibly troubled, before asking softly.] We're going to have to fight him eventually, right? That's always what these things are building up to. Thanos came for us eventually on Earth after sending lackies to kill us since I was like what? Four? [She shakes her head. Not important.] This guy will finds us too.
