And I feel like my castle's crumbling down
And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground

I'm not hurt, said Noah, but Soh felt the weight of everything he didn't say through the bond. She did her best to pull her own emotions inward, pushing all of the fear and the pain and the rage back and tucking it away into a locked box in the back of her mind, where she could worry about it some other time, when it wasn't likely to hurt someone else. She didn't entirely succeed, but she hoped that her efforts were enough to mute the feelings flowing freely from her shattered soul, to protect Noah at least somewhat from the brunt of her emotions.
It was Noah's worry that Soh felt most keenly - that and a bone-deep guilt that Soh recognized as clearly as if it had been her own. She took a deep breath; it shuddered faintly, a ghost of the feelings lingering in the back of her mind. "You did what we needed to take the behemoth down," she told him, and she meant it. "Physically, I'm fine - and mentally, I will be soon." She hoped. She softened. "It's okay. I'm okay. Everything's okay."
