[itsuki really has had a lot happen to him in the last 48 hours.
someone please help him.
jiuqing doesn't know how much she can do for him - the kind of hurt he's going through isn't something that can be bandaged, the way she bandaged his knuckles. there's no medical treatment that will make the loss of buzen hurt any less, or make the realization of what marie - the other marie? - had done any less raw.
all she can do is be here. so, she'll do exactly that, and hope that in some small way, it can help. here is a little closer to him than she would otherwise be - her arms loosely around him, staying close as one of his hands rests on his back, and his head rests on her shoulder - but that's fine.
if it helps, it helps.
she brings one of her hands up to rest at the back of his head.]
