when the night falls on you
& you don't know what to do
& you don't know what to do
It's such a Finn answer to give, and Tobi finds it all the more comforting because of that. Breaking the chocolate into two even pieces, she starts to hand Finn his half before deciding against it, and offering him the orange instead. Meticulously peeling something will probably have a soothing effect on his mind, she thinks.
'Oh, I'm fine.' Tobi answers quickly as if the question had been something casually asked in passing. The smile which follows is quick and hollow as her long fingers turn a square of chocolate over and over again between them. 'I put Ever on one of the Skyboats headed for the Greatwood a few hours ago.' She adds, hoping that of all the things likely spiralling out of control in Finn's mind, that their son's safety needn't be one of them.

nothing you confess
could make me love you less
