<sub>[JJ's fear is a valid one. As it stands if he did reject her it probably wouldn't end very well. She notices the tremor in his body, much like a spider would the vibration of prey stuck in their web. She doesn't begin to wrap him up like an arachnid would, at least not with thread. Its her arms that reach out to draw him close to her, to bring his forehead in line with her blood soaked chest, fingers carding through his hair in a well meaning but misplaced attempt to soothe.

Calm down. Could she? The roars of dragon are still ringing in her ears, still making her blood boil and skin burn as if it's on fire.

But JJ's asking her to, suggesting it even. Tipping her head her hair falls around them, a black curtain of strands as her nails scrape against his scalp.]</sub>

I don't know...I'm not very good at being calm...you can hear it, right JJ? How upset he is? How much his heart aches? It makes me furious.

_{[Understatement of the century.]}

Please don't look...you don't have to. I'll keep you safe.
