FINN
Finn does drink his hot chocolate, but it's more to get rid of it than any other reason. It was Tobi's idea to get it, after all, and it would be rude to leave it or let it go cold. He's comfortable, at least, with their stroll back to the Tower, even if perhaps he's walking a little faster than is customary. (And why would that be, Finn?) When Tobi speaks, picking up on his comments and running with them, he feels his heart all but leap into his throat.
What do you mean? Why would you want to? fights to escape through his lips, followed by another, more insidious little voice that tells him just to agree, to let her do whatever she pleases to him, because everyone's already used and abused him.
But in the end Finn does manage to shake away the panic to really think about it properly, and he frowns thoughtfully down at the snow. "That is alright, but..." Another deep breath, and he nods as if to convince himself to say it. "I get... it makes me uncomfortable, when someone is behind me. It takes me by surprise. Would you tell me, before you touch me when it's like that?"
