Looks like Zane here found Ivory's soft spot. She moved of the counter and in front of Zane. "No one deserves to be hit. Ever."

I wasn't aware she only had one. "....I did, I would screw up and ruin his projects all the time..."

It's a very small one. "Still, that is not an excusable reason to hurt someone. Especially a child. Especially your own son."

Bulls-eye. "........." He looked almost guilty, about what, even I'm not sure. Could be anything, really. Could be the fact that his shoes don't match. I have no idea what's going on there.

Ah-ha, Now we're talking. She knelled down to where she was eye level with him, which really wasn't that much. "It isn't your fault. None of that. Is your fault, and he should of been more grateful that he has such a wonderful son."

He still didn't respond. Not his fault? Don't be ridiculous, of course it was his fault. That's what Dad had always said. Is what was running through his mind, I don't share that opinion at all. Wonderful, huh? Now that was just silly....

God dammit. She was glad that he told her, but she felt really bad that she couldn't help him. She herself had never been hit, but she could still at least understand what he had been through. What she did next was completely on impulse. She wrapped her arms around him, and hugged him tightly.

🌀

He went rigid at first, extremely confused. What was she doing? Hugging him? Why? He nearly retaliated with martial arts instinctively before he realized what was going on. "U-uh, why--"

2015-06-24 08:29:05

●

He...was asking her why? Shit. /Shit./ Shit! she fucked up. She fucked up /really/ bad. God dammit! She immediately pulled away. "S-sorry!" She stuttered out. Like that'll fix things. "I don't things without thinking them through! I'm sorry!"

2015-06-24 08:33:26

🌀

He was sort of staring off into space, cheeks slightly tinged pink. "No, it is, it is okay, I...sorry, I'm just not used to that sort of thing..." He laughed a little, a smile peeking through the confused haze, and rubbed the back of his neck and the bandages around it.

●

Fucking. IDIOT. How could she be so stupid. He probably thinks she's weird now. God dammit. GOD DAMMIT. "Are you sure?" She asked. "I mean I-" She couldn't even properly form a sentence without embarrassing herself. "I shouldn't be doing that if it bothers you. I'm sorry."

2015-06-24 08:49:05

🌀

The smile disappeared along with the temporary and surely flower-shooting aura. His hand closed into a fist at the back of his neck. "No, I should not have told you that if it was going to make you beat yourself up for acting as you normally do."

2015-06-24 08:53:37

●

"No I-" She exhaled. Just calm down. You panic enough and Lance will sense it to break this little nerd parade up. Okay. She was okay. "It's in my nature to beat myself up, I can't help it. "

2015-06-24 08:59:08

Now he was at a loss. He'd been going off of 'be yourself, don't let me stop you', but he certainly didn't want her yelling at herself by and for doing so. "Uh...then...please do not or I will have to restrain you?"

2015-06-24 09:02:18

●

She gave a weak laugh. "Ha! As if that will stop it. Really it's nothing to be concerned about."

2015-06-24 09:04:29

🌀

"I think it really is."

2015-06-24 09:06:29

●

"Please. Don't be worried about me. I'm fine. There is no reason to burden yourself with that."

2015-06-24 09:08:16

🌀

"I cannot /not/ be worried about you if you have a problem like that, while we are on the subject of natures, that is in mine."

2015-06-24 09:10:06

●

"Well than it looks like we're in the same terrible boat."

2015-06-24 09:11:44

🌀

"I am bringing this boat ashore right this second and evicting you from it."

2015-06-24 09:13:09

●

"Too late. I'm chained to it."

2015-06-24 09:13:37

🌀

"There must be a blowtorch around here somewhere."

2015-06-24 09:14:20

●

"It's out of juice. I'm stuck there."

2015-06-24 09:15:14

🌀

"Then I will carry the boat with me."

2015-06-24 09:15:56

●

"That doesn't solve the problem of you and I being stuck in that same boat."
