Coop studies her as she eats, though he doesn't have to search very hard to figure out that she's not exactly bouncing off the walls with eagerness to go knock on Joel's door for the kind of help he's talking about here. The magic still freaks her out, whether it's not all bad or not. What Coop wants her to see is that it's not all as black and white as it might seem, which he's sure she gets conceptually, but she needs to see it in action to truly understand it.
Supposed 'good' witches have been known to go dark side, to fall victim to greed or fear or love or whatever it is that keeps someone under the influence of that kind of power. Likewise, 'bad' witches can cast decidedly good spells, depending on the reason. Most of them wouldn't do it unless it benefit them, but Coop doesn't see that too often here. Siren Cove gets all the nutbags, apparently, but at least it makes things slightly easier when it comes to predicting who's causing half the shit.
"It's your decision," he continues, shrugging. "I'm not going to force you to go see him. But he's a good guy, just had a newborn, and he'd do anything to protect the people he loves. Something we can both relate to, I think, isn't it?" He pauses, looking down at his suddenly very interesting slice of pizza before continuing. "I mean, I could go with you to see him. If you wanted. If it freaks you out."
