Delphine
Delphine watched the man lose his composure, watched knees hit the ground, and when she decided the man was effectively disarmed by his own, soulcrushing pain, she moved forward again.
She held out a hand, scarred and imperfect, "Come home with me. Sit by the fire and let me make you a meal. You can leave whenever you wish or stay as long as you wish, but please? You're hurting, the least I can do is offer you a meal and a warm fire." The blonde woman offered a slight smile.
"Do you have a favorite meal?" She doesn't touch him, even though she's certain she could help. Her hand hovers far enough away that he has to actively reach, search for her touch if he accepts it.
He reminds her of an animal, that's lost everything its known and has no idea what to do now.

How can I begin again?
How can I try to love someone new,
someone who isn’t you?
