She'll keep reminding Paladin, if it seems necessary. She's already met two people who can't return to their own worlds because their portals disappeared. "It really is more useful than relying on a portal, no matter how stable the portal is."
The question doesn't surprise her. She's been asked that many times, usually soon after the other person learns how crappy her current world is. It's a question she asks herself, every time she visits the Nexus. "I've... thought about it, yes. But..." She sighs and picks at the remnants of her chicken. "I can't leave my friends behind. I could bring Maggie here, and Seth and Will and a few others, but there wouldn't be enough time to rescue everyone, and... it'd be too much like giving up." And all the comforts of the Nexus wouldn't take away that shame. "If... If things get really bad, I'll consider it. But for now, I can't leave them."
It doesn't seem fair, that Paladin's inherent magic only works to make people more afraid of her. "It's not like that here, you know. I mean, you might run into some people who are prejudiced against anything remotely demonic, but... everyone is an individual here and should be treated that way. If someone can't figure that out, then it's their loss."
