[...it's strange. To be honest, she does find it too familiar; Alfyn will try to hug her in the future and be rebuked. Savia simply tried to make friends with her and she forced herself to shut that down, too. She's really trying to continue living to the standards Lord Odin has always set for her and the rest of Ragnanival. To keep distance. To live for battle. Helping people is fine, closeness with them is another thing altogether.
But Soundwave's current appearance definitely helps a lot. Fault in other adults is one thing, but a young looking girl taking her hand is another. Isn't it possible she's just alone and taking comfort in having someone with her? Even if the truth is Gwen's just making excuses, excuses she tried making herself for everyone else who'd tried to make friends or get close with her, holding hands is innocent enough and the maternal part of her is definitely a big part in convincing her it's okay. The need to big sister is strong.]
Thank you. But it's alright; I didn't intend on leaving myself out.
