[The grip on her hand makes Descole go rigid, but she forces herself not to pull away. It takes enough concentration just to keep herself still like that, just to stop herself from screaming, that she's almost not able to remember everything right now. Her mind is screaming to pull away from the touch, to run away and hide until her double gives up and leaves her alone, but at least ignoring that and telling herself over and over that she can trust him means that she's not actually thinking about the memories that prompted this whole thing.
Eventually, she starts to relax, shifting closer inch by inch. She practically collapses against her double once she's close enough, holding onto his hand for dear life and bawling into his chest. She doesn't even care right now that she's embarrassing herself. Once she's calmed down she'll probably be mortified, but right now she can't even register that. All she knows is that everything hurts, that she's scared, just like she always is, and that she's not cried like this since it happened. She's cried, but she hasn't cried properly, she hasn't cried it out with no care for who could see her, because up until now she's never felt safe enough to let down her guard like that. To trust someone else to look after her while she gives into it.]
Oh god, double. Please. Don't go. Stay here, okay? I need you.
