[The moment Ian pulls Souji in, Souji's arms are around Ian's waist and his face is buried in Ian's shoulder. His hold is just as tight as it was before, his fingers twisting carefully in the leather of Ian's jacket. In an instant, it seemed as though Souji lost himself completely, his body racked with sobs and any tension leaving his body as he simply allowed himself to fall limp in Ian's arms.
It's the first time Souji can remember crying since the first time they'd thought they'd lost Torin. Even when his parents separated, Souji had never allowed himself to cry, wanting to stay strong for his father. He'd never lost anyone to death, not permanently.

For a few minutes, Souji simply clings to Ian as tightly as he can, sobbing uncontrollably against the other's shoulder. He tries a few times to stop himself, which only makes him cry harder. Eventually, Souji gives up, waiting for his body to stop on its own.]
