Emmett
Scarecrow I think I love you, will you ever understand,
It's not as if I've fallen for this but I'm doing what I can

Emmett wasn't sure what he had been expecting from the total stranger after his outburst, but the hand on his shoulder was so welcome that it finally brought the tears brimming in him to the surface, a loud shaking breath preceding the fall.
Caiside's words (which he only just heard over the sounds of his own panic) were...odd to hear, at first. Hard, unyielding, unlike how he thought comfort should feel. But as Emmett considered them, he realised he liked them. Perhaps it was what he needed right now, something he could use to move on rather than wallow.
"...Yeah, you're prolly right. Thanks." He said, sniffling and rubbing at his nose with the back of his sleeve. "...D...do you have experience with somethin' like this?"
