[Rei listened to his story, the distance between them seeming like a canyon. She could feel the pain and his shaking, and knew that she'd probably asked too much of the poor wizard. At the same time, Helios was answering, and truthfully, which she took as both a sign of trust and of caring. There was very little else she COULD think.
Still, even though this is something unpleasant, she feels a bit better, and she honestly is grateful for the trust. Rei can't help but feel more than a bit of pity for the man. She wants to help people. Thats...part of how she copes with her own problems. Fortune telling, studying ritual, even being a miko. She's alone, and she wants to help and dammit Helios. You are such a derp but you gave her something...a person who she can try and heal.
Her finger slips along Luminair's back, hopefully reassuring the tiny dragon, even as she looks into Helios' eyes. Her words are more confident than before. She's sad, but if she's helping, then that's good for her too!]
Its...ok, Helios-san, let it out. I'm alright now. Together, we can stand this.
