Diana has survived and manned countless situations the meeker side of the living would rather not even dream of ever being a part of - and those that do, do it with a sense of violent underestimation of what it is they'd actually be getting themselves into.
Nonetheless, she somehow finds this a much stronger struggle instead: her frown is already constricting into one resembling the outwardly recognizable signs of onset headaches.
All in the details, isn't a crime a crime? Can there be good intentions behind a crime? How can a world spin at a proper tempo if crimes suddenly become circumstantial in their deserving of that definition.
More than anything, her speaking companion's nonchalance is seemingly the most intense aspect here. Something about being met with half the energy, a look in those eyes that insinuate she's waiting a recognizable pattern of behaviours out, as if simply waiting for Diana to be done, Diana doesn't like feeling like she isn't in control of the situation.

She isn't in control here.
It's that odd, sneaking suspicion into the subconscious that you might actually be wrong, like hot embarrassing and violent acid burning at the pride of someone as likely to ignite as Diana.
"I understand evidence," she says, as if personally offended by the insinuation she might not understand having to prove a crime has been committed. "Which book is irrelevant. The crime is the relevant aspect. All I have to say is 'a book was stolen' and then retrieve it. It being in possession of you would be the evidence."
Accusation and punishment becomes very easy if you never walk in someone else's shoes.
"Intentions don't make a crime no crime. There are other ways to provide for someone who needs it, though possessing a book would qualify as a luxury, don't you think."
