She chuckled softly. "Then we're a perfect pair, because we can worry about and protect each other."
She tilted her head, still smiling slightly. "It's hard, sometimes, letting someone take care of you. I know... I've been horribly independant for a long time. But even the strongest person breaks down. And we all need someone to turn to. I can tell... you're the kind who prefers to keep things to himself and doesn't want to worry others, and so you let everything get to you and you don't really lean on anyone else. But being at the top is lonely, no matter who you're with, if you don't share the responsibility."
Lina shifted and winced a little. That's right, she had been planning on sneaking out and tending to her bruises and such. "I'm not going to tell you that you need to rely on others too, though I do think so. But I will tell you that if you need someone to turn to, I will be here. And I will help the best I can without bias or judgement."
