Rean's method of expressing himself is pretty successful. He's right that Crow would just get more upset if Rean said he didn't mind, but the kissing is nice. More than nice, he responds to it quite readily without, for the moment, pushing for more-- just accepting softly, hungrily.
And when Rean pulls away, Crow lifts a hand to trace his thumb along Rean's jaw. ]

It's gonna take everyone a while before they can move on from this. It's pretty upsetting stuff.
Re: [ IN THE MORNING ]
[He scratches his cheek.]
I appreciate it... but you're right. This isn't the short of thing anyone moves on from in a day or two.
Re: [ IN THE MORNING ]
[ At least he hadn't been forced to exist with that unrelenting hunger. ]

It's not, but as it turns out I'm also more worried about everyone else.
[ It's not even a lie. ]
