Hnnn...

[He'd been hoping not to hear something like that from her. That there was nothing he could do and that things would never be the same. Hoping that there was something he COULD do and things would eventually just go back to normal had maybe been too much. But he would have settled for one of the two.]

Alright.

[Despite the fact that he was a pretty physical person and hugs made him feel better in 99.9% of cases, he understood her gesture well enough and took a step back. He didn't understand what was behind it of course, but the meaning was very clear.]

I wish there WAS something I could do. Red is back to normal now and I know he feels really terrible about what happened. He can't even talk. He wrote it down for me on a pad and I think he was really scared because he thought I was going to be mad at him...

[That last part sounded uncharacteristically bitter. He was really, really mad of course. However, the person who was the cause of it had disappeared and would never have to face any real consequences for what had happened. That was the most frustrating part.]

All I can do is... be here. For him. And for you. And maybe that's really not going to help anyone right now, but maybe in time it will do some good.
