Re: In person: Rinoa/Squall
[Rinoa watched him; she was an expert on Squall watching. She had to be, to see through his quiet to what was going on underneath. Her expression softened and she got up, moving over to take his hand gently. It was comforting for them both.] Hey, it's going to be okay. We got through Ultimecia, we can get through whatever this is. [Her other hand reached out to run her own fingers through his hair, smiling. It was nice to be able to make gestures with him. She spent a long time wanting to do it, but afraid to because of his reaction. Now he had implicit permission.]
