Re: [Lakeside: Hannah/Rey]
She gave Rey a soft smile, something warm and uncertain, but grateful. "Thank you," she said, and she meant the thanks. She meant it very, very much. "I just didn't know if that meant you couldn't help me, and I didn't want you to risk being harmed if something went wrong. So, I'll leave it up to you whether you want to risk it or not, and I understand either way."
And there was something liberating about saying the words, speaking the truth to someone who wasn't affected by it, who hadn't lost another version of her. She exhaled hard and shaky.
