Angling his head to console Kaleeth, Janius nodded and reasserted what he had said throughout. "Control comes from practice, Kaleeth. We were all like this in the beginning. None of us had complete control." Janius brought his hand around and supported Kaleeth's chin with the side of his hand, "But you performed amazingly today. You demonstrated that you [i]could[/i] control it, and however fearful of it you are, that is an important step to take."

Janius turned his head to one side to catch a glimpse at the river again, then his eyes found Kaleeth's once more. "I think the fact that I'm still alive is evidence of that. Hm, you did quite the opposite of hurting me." He turned his eyes to the ground, though he still smiled. Janius didn't mind being where he was at the moment. Being against Kaleeth again brought back nice feelings for once in what felt like an eternity. However, his own guilt kept him from being any more affectionate at this stage, especially with the fear still written on Kaleeth's face...but she wasn't standing up off him in any hurry. "We could...head back to camp if you like," Janius said in a tone that was a little unsure.
