So it was...beat into you instead? [he's mostly concerned because she's way more hurt than he and Alex were after their adventure.] ...how did you guys get out?
[at least his spikes are very soft, so she's allowed. he'll even lean in a little to let her be more comfortable.]
I know. I guess I just don't like that all the bad things happen to good people. You've never even had to experience something like this before, have you?
I'm not sure if that's better or worse, actually. [better in terms of preparation, but worse because wow that's terrible either way. it's fine. he'll just lean in a little more because he doesn't quite have words to make up for that.]
It's true. We haven't gone back to ours, and we can't find it anymore. [so she's safe...for lack of a better word.] I don't like that any of you went through it, but I'm glad you weren't alone.

A lot of things shouldn't happen. All we can do is deal with them to the bet of our ability.

...at least it's over. And you'll never have to go back and do that again.

I think I might have stopped moving, if I had been alone.

This place...likes to try and separate us. And make us trust each other less. I don't like that sometimes it could win. But it didn't this time.
[thankfully.]
