[It's too easy to move with the press of his arm, to lean her head in to his shoulder. It's one of the things that scares her the most about what they've heard, what might be happening. She spent a long time - not for him, but definitely for her - alone after her father died. And yeah, part of that was just being fucked up, but a good deal of it was believing that loving people just gave life another way to hurt you. If he came to her door, offering comfort or asking for it - if Takeshi came in tears, or Alex hurt and confused - she'd let them in before she'd think to interrogate them, to make sure they were real.]
Thanks for taking the mask, by the way. I just... have a bad feeling. Don't want it there when I get back.
