even my darkness shines for you
Far from repulsed, the Star gathers her close against him, smoothing a hand across her upper back and letting her get her bearings for as long as she needs. "Ah," he says, both understanding completely (from Tobi's perspective) and misunderstanding (from Finn's). "And now there's a lot more on the line than a broken heart," he says in explanation, letting an arm loop around her shoulders so he can guide her up into the apartment.
Only the spiral staircase means that they need to part from each other, and when they do reach the apartment properly, he ushers her to the couch in the living area so he can put a pot of tea onto the stove. "Well... do you think you are going to let him know?" he asks. "Because he might still want to be a part of things, even if..." He sighs. "Regardless, you're not going to be alone through this."
