You're still just sort of sitting on the ground, but you lean into Delphy's embrace awkwardly, a little bit stiff and uncertain. Despite your effusive and affectionate nature the only person you've ever really been physically intimate with is Oia, and... well, we all know how that works out.
So. Point being that needless to say, hugs are not particularly high on your list of everyday occurrences, but you appreciate them all the more for that. Still shivering rather pathetically, you turn your face up to Delphia as she explains her reasoning, biting your lip unhappily and peering at her through tear-crusted lashes. "Why do we need to get the ascended souls, anyway?" you ask, not accusatory but naively curious, still desperate to avoid further interaction with the Spire. "They seem happy t'be ascended, at least the ones I talked to. Did anyone ask if they wanted their souls back?"
