Re: Elan / Emily
[She stared at him for a moment, having no idea at first what her brother was doing. And once she did realize, she let out a choked little laugh, laced through with disbelief, and stepped forward. Yes, it was awkward, but she buried her face against the front of his chest, curling into him like he could protect her. And maybe he couldn't, but the contact helped to ground her, helped to pull her into the present, and sighed out, steadier than she had been for hours as she wrapped her arms around his waist.]
