[Her hold tightens slightly, and... From his grip on her, he might be able to tell that she's shaking slightly.

After a few moments, though, in a thick voice that's trying for a joke:]

You're going to regret that part about not caring whether it's pretty when you see how my face looks.

[usogi]

[he holds her close even as she trembles, moving his hand to stroke through her hair at the same time.

at that, he responds without hesitation:]

You always look like a daydream, Zo. Even when you're wearing the worst jacket in the universe.

[requiemed]

I bet you say that to all the girls.

[It's another joke with a watery delivery; she laughs slightly as she leans away from him. She does have tear tracks running down her face, but it doesn't look like she's still crying.]

[usogi]

[okay that makes him laugh]

Other girls my age are more like my fans, you know?

[but he will bring up a hand to try to wipe away some of those tear tracks with his thumb]

Did that help?

[requiemed]

Right. I remember you said you didn't have many friends your age.

[She doesn't move away as he runs his thumb over her cheeks, taking a deep breath instead.]

...Yeah. Thanks.
