i promise you i will learn from all my mistakes
That bit she knew about. Gossip had spread through Stormbreak like wildfire, about the woman who had gone mad and thrown herself off of the Falling. To hear Finn say it though makes Tobi's blood run cold, and though it probably isn't at all what the moment calls for, the doctor finds herself pausing and simultaneously tugging on Finn's hand to pull him around to her. Standing on her toes and pressing herself against him, Tobi wraps her arms around his neck, burying her nose into his collar that she might simply hug him. It wouldn't do any good, couldn't fix or heal anything, and nor could she promise to always be around...but what she could do was love him fiercely in the here and now, and hug him beneath the towering boughs of the Greatwood.
Finn's suggestion is a good one, a really good one in fact. So much so that Tobi finds her throat all the more tightly closed with emotion than it already was. "I—" She croaks, swallowing hard. '..that's a really lovely idea. Maybe on the way back? I think I'll just start to cry if we go wandering through now." Tobi readily admits, laughing at herself and the thin sheen of tears already sparkling across her eyes.
