So considerate, of every little thing, and it was hard not to notice the great care he took, shortening his strides so she could keep up, minding her every step and matching his own to her rhythm, holding her close so she didn't get too overwhelmed. It was like every piece of --

Tod led her outside , mindful that he didn't take strides as he walked to make sure he didn't trip over Ellie , he didn't want that !

- adverting her gaze a moment, scrunching her face up a little in thought. He had made it easy, so much easier than she had anticpated. No heart racing, or panic, no sensations of walls closing in or voices fading in and out as she spiralled, if anything, it was the least she'd--

@SKlNAMARINK 'Several. Father used to make special ones at christmas, with orange peel and candied lemon.'

@SKlNAMARINK 'I made them for you, silly. They are all yours.'

Gently pushing the tin closer, ambling over to perch on the desk next to him, smiling away every so happily, swinging her legs a little.

There was a strange comfort to be found in meeting someone as in the dark about people, and relationships as herself, it firstly, made her feel just a little less alien, and it seemed to cure that slowly growing anomie she'd been experiencing, feelings of being disenfranchised--
