[ When he twists, she makes a little noise of sniffled out apology and pulls back, only for his hands to find her throat. She makes a noise of surprise, but when she places a hand on his wrist, it’s still gentle. She’s not worried about his violence, but it’s in the way she’s not really worried about anyone’s violence… Even if he were to dissipate her, she’d just be a little surprised.

But her expression just falls a little further into one that’s soft and sad. She can guess at why he denies it, at least. He doesn’t want that hope, because if she can’t, then that has to be even worse, doesn’t it?
