    Summary

    His hands settle on your back, initially cautious, but his hold swiftly tightens; you're practically crushed together. His sweater shifts against the hole in his abdomen under your weight, and the soft fabric brushes the dark flesh inside. He's tempted to make another metaphor out of it. One about how the warmth of an embrace could compensate for the emptiness that encompassed his nature. He resists for your sake.

    Summary

    The Angel perplexes Ralsei far more than he can handle. How could he understand them? One moment, they are hugging him. The next, they choose to fight for the first time without any prior warning. Between days, they grow more tired, like something weighs them down. Ralsei's only purpose is to serve them and the Lightners, so perhaps he just does not understand how the Angel can change so rapidly. He can never truly understand them, despite trying so hard to do so. Yet, part of him keeps wondering. Curiosity gnaws at him the more time he spends in the Angel's presence.

    After a frustrating three days with the Angel, Ralsei cannot make heads or tails of their behavior. They confuse him, and he confuses them. Perhaps, Ralsei was not thinking straight when he took drastic measures. Maybe, he had been too weathered down by the previous day in the church to be able to think rationally. Against his better judgement, he calls for the Angel by name.

    They answer, and Ralsei finally sees the Angel for what they are.
