Rain smiled a little as Andro admitted her sleeping patterns weren't particularly good normally. [color=skyblue]"Ah...are you a fellow night owl or is sleeping just not easy for you?"[/color] She asked. It was an absent minded question, the werewolf wasn't necessarily expecting an answer, though she was also aware that keeping Andro talking wasn't a bad thing. Coherent sentences were a good sign, even if they were disturbed by shivers...though they were annoying, Rain considered them to be a good sign as well. Concern flickered across her face as Andro chuckled at her internal pun, it had sounded a little off...but she decided to pretend she hadn't noticed. 

Feeling Andro tense as she settled behind her, Rain instinctively responded by allowing a soft rumbling growl to vibrate through her chest. To another of her species the softness of the tone would have been a comfort, though it didn't cross her mind that it might effect Andro differently otherwise she might have backed it up with words. It was another one of those instincts that kept springing themselves on Rain whilst she was around Andro, ones she hadn't even realised she possessed. 

With her story told and feelings admitted, Rain tried to turn her attention elsewhere. She lifted one of her hands and watched her nails elongate into claws at the tips of her fingers, her eyes had just dropped back to object resting beside her when she felt Andro's hand rest on her shoulder. She twitched in surprise and turned her head to look down at the gorgon. Her eyebrow raised questioningly as she watched Andro turn over, for a moment she considered asking her what she was up to but the words couldn't push past her lips. Instead she simply watched, only averting her eyes when her reflection caught on Andro's sunglasses, thanks to Glitch's light above her head.

Well this comment alone, made Rain realise an assortment of things at that moment in time. First of all, despite everything she had believed before, her heart was still in her chest and it was still capable of being knocked out of rhythm. A strange fluttering feeling worked it's way through her chest, twisting between her organs with an almost nauseating effect as anxiety-stricken happiness bubbled up to meet it. She looked back at Andro, looking helplessly at her sunglasses her eyes wide and lips parted as if she were going to speak. That warm smile, which she had seen many times before had the uncanny ability to cast out every thought in her mind, if only for the briefest of moments. Coupled with the gorgon's confession, it was able to pull the breath from her lungs and the sudden onslaught left Rain feeling a little dizzy. 

She instinctively reached out to catch Andro's hand as it fell away from her shoulder, in a flash of movement her heated fingers danced across the back the gorgon's hand and curled around the side of it, attempting to keep it suspended in the air. As soon as their skin met, Rain absorbed any and as much pain as she could, black lines tracked their way up the back of her palm and along her wrist. Her eyes focused on Andro's fingers, recalling her previous comment on frostbite. Her expression was thoughtful, no doubt digesting everything that she'd just been told. 

[color=skyblue]"What makes you think I wouldn't believe you now?"[/color] She asked, hoping that her pain transference was enough to keep Andro from pulling her hand away. She liked the feel of it in her palm but her grip was loose enough that the gorgon could retract her hand if it was too painful to endure or uncomfortable. 

[color=skyblue]"If anything, it's times like these that the truth comes out..."[/color] She murmured, her eyes narrowing as she added [color=skyblue]"I wouldn't have believed you if you told me after"[/color] 

If Andro hadn't pulled her hand away, Rain ran her thumb across her palm. Still drawing out as much discomfort as she could whilst ignoring the black lines tracking their way up her arms, there was just enough adrenaline in her system to make short work of what she was doing. She was quiet after that, giving Andro a chance to say something before she spoke again. 

[color=skyblue]"I guess I should tell you how I feel as well, hmm?"[/color] She asked, her eyes brightened as she stared at either Andro's hand tucked in hers or the clawed fingertips of her empty hand. There was conflict in her voice, just as there was in her thoughts. 

[color=skyblue]"...if you want to know how I feel in return, you're going to have to get through this"[/color] Rain finished looking at the tips of Andro's fingers. She lifted her free hand up to the side of her own head and knowing that Andro couldn't see, her fingers sought out the braid hidden beneath the blue layers of her hair. Her brow creased into a frown as she silently chastised herself for getting carried away. [color=skyblue]"As soon as you're safe, I'll tell you everything"[/color] Rain felt a twinge of anxiety as she laid out her promise, the idea of exposing her secrets was far more unnerving than she thought it would be. Dropping her hand to the floor she turned her focus elsewhere.

[color=skyblue]"For now, how are your hands...the frostbite?"[/color]

The logical side of her brain kicked in, reminding her that the gorgon could still be suffering whilst she toyed with the idea of confessing and that the chances were...Andro wouldn't remember this anyway. Whether it was true or not was debatable but logic was adamant in it's decision and Rain trusted it.
