[Ryuuko's expression wilted with the guilt of not being able to tell him what she knew he desperately wanted to hear. but for her to say that to someone, she wanted to mean it without a shadow of a doubt. strictly speaking it was a lot for her to process. she had repressed those kinds of emotions for as long as she could remember to the point that actually allowing herself to feel them was almost unnatural. while it initially served as a self defense mechanism to keep herself from being hurt, over time it become a part of herself she'd grown to resent. an apology perched on the tip of her tongue but she bit it back, knowing he wouldn't want her to apologize for that part of herself.

Her arms slid around his middle to return his embrace, pressing a kiss to his shoulder as she leaned her cheek against it. her fingers traced up the length of his spine, settling the heels of her palms against his shoulder blades as she gripped him a little tighter.]
M'not goin anywhere.... Hell itself couldn't chase me away.
