[Dani sighs into the hug, melting into it and wrapping his arms around Tris's waist as he listens to him talk. It feels good. It helps. The magic is enough to keep him grounded, keep him from burying himself in his sadness.
He's quiet for a long moment, then takes a breath.]
[ Tris smiles a little at that, pushes some of Dani's hair back from his forehead and lays a kiss there too gently. ]
The bakery in town owes me a favor after the owner's daughter got married last week so I picked up some chocolate croissants. Picked up some candy at the pharmacy... Got some soup too--tomato.
[ His voice fades a little bit as he wraps Dani up a bit more, keeps him closer and lets his warmth pour a little more heavily into him. It isn't hard, sharing his magic with Dani, it's almost effortless. It's less to cheer him up, more to strengthen him. He can't haul him out of how he's feeling, he can only throw down a rope and urge him on with careful touches. He smoothes away the hair behind his ear and smiles a little. ]
I came prepared, okay? And I can run out if you want something else. [ He squeezes a bit. ]
[Just as easily as Tris offers his magic, Dani absorbs it, feels it filling him up. He closes his eyes and leans his face into Tris's shoulder, breathing him in.]
Thank you.
[You shouldn't have, is what he doesn't say. I don't deserve it, is also what he doesn't say, though the thoughts are very clear in his mind. He doesn't deserve this love. He's not worthy of it. He's not worthy of anything.]
