Greta knew about the punching, but she tsks disapprovingly nevertheless. There are other ways to get someone's attention, and the Balladeer's already been subjected to more violence than she'd like. Johnny couldn't have just said something?

Then again, knowing what she does now about the Balladeer's abilities, she can't entirely blame Johnny for being upset, either. There are parts of her story she wouldn't want casually broadcast to anyone within earshot, and that's only because they're embarrassing, not because they're dangerous.

She sighs, ducking her head a little to better peer in at him. "He didn't tell me anything specific. It wasn't easy for him to get anything across, his curse being what it is, and I... I told him I didn't want to know, anyway. Whatever he heard, it's none of my business."

After a beat, she adds, "But I don't think he could help hearing. It's his Rift Power - rather like what he used to do, back where he came from. He can just hear people's stories, like music." It's not easy to politely convey what he seems to have thought of Johnny's story, in particular, but she eventually settles on, "I think yours... startled him."
