When you're standing at the crossroads
& don't know which path to choose
& don't know which path to choose
Sitting back, Tobi waits for Finn's brain to process the things his mouth is saying, and for his stream of excuses to finally run dry. If anything Tobi's smile widens as Finn rationally panics, and she finds that it's moments like these that make her smile in the dark of the night when she's having trouble falling asleep.
Besides, she'd just panicked at the thought of him being sent away. She owed him this.
"You're right, it absolutely isn't up to us, and maybe Ever won't want it, or Mateo won't, or Remi and Ronin won't." Softly, she lays one of her hands on the couch between them, palm up for Finn to grab should he find it comforting. Sometimes he did, sometimes he didn't, and Tobi never took it personally either way. "But I always had a safe place growing up, and I'd like Mateo to have one too. One that isn't all the way across the world."

Let me come along,
'Cause even if you're wrong, I'll stand by you
'Cause even if you're wrong, I'll stand by you
