[And there it is: the reaction she had decided to angle toward. Lexa knows that it's likely unwise to manipulate someone so close to her core emotional state, but she's hardly fazed by Ahsoka's worries. Just because she understands where they come from doesn't mean she has any inclination to heed them.

(Consider the skills of your comrades before you lavish them with concern. Trust is a natural byproduct of respect.)
[As much as Ahsoka is injecting anger into her mind, she responds to it with a cool indifference. Leave it to Lexa to make this into a teaching moment, almost as if she's utterly unaware of exactly how condescending she's being in response.
(And she is kind of unaware, but it felt like a good moment to take over because there is something deeply amusing in being told to take care of herself as if she hasn't considered all the consequences of her actions. By anyone.)]
