[He promises, and she knows that he means it with all of his heart, but it doesn't comfort her. So much of their lives are completely out of their control. He hadn't chosen for his code to be corrupted (whatever that meant), just as her father hadn't chosen to be murdered ... terrible things just happen. And she tries to be strong about it, tries to focus on the things she can do but sometimes she's just crushed by the futility of it all.
But sooner or later, she does always get it back under control. After a few moments of shaking in his arms, Yona pulls herself back together.]
You're not hurt, are you? Because of what happened? Is anything damaged?
[ Of course it doesn't. It shouldn't. He's always known that the bullshit that happens here was and still is out of his control; and boy he's gone through hell to try and get a grip on it all, but even so... CERES is smart. In a world that both of them are still trying to understand, they are at a disadvantage. A huge one.
It helps that she stops shaking. Puts his mind at ease, just a little more. He's never going to rest until they're safe, but he pulls himself together in the same instant. ]
Doesn't feel like it. I woke up, and I went through that dumb presentation all over again. It felt like my first time here all over again.
Good. I'm glad. [She takes a deep breath, and then puts her hands on her hips.] I was just about ready to throw out everything in your room! It's a mess in there!
[Truth be told, her own room is far messier than Hak's could ever be — now that she has the means to buy pretty clothes again, and a place to put them, and no real reason not to buy pretty clothes ... well, she's been collecting quite a wardrobe. And while she's gotten used to a life without servants tending to her every need, that hasn't exactly translated into her being tidy with her things.]
