[QUOTE="Autumn, post: 3585916, member: 50015"] [sblock=OOC]Aha, I knew that there were those little chunks written up of how each character views the others... but it was late when I was writing that post and after a little bit of searching I just gave up and decided to use my judgment instead. And I just assumed that given Jina's habitual mischief-making, she and Khalia would never have been all that friendly. But, oh well, Jina's in a weird place right now anyway so I think this all makes sense in any case. Just maybe apply a pinch of salt to some of the OOC text in that last post, and we're good.[/sblock] Jina's eyes flicker up and hold Khalia's for a moment. The kindness in her tone had got through, and Jina realizes that maybe she was making a mistake in pushing her away. Her concern over Jango was clouding her judgment, her inner turmoil blinding her to the outside world. If Khalia isn't quite the intimate friend or family that she needs right now, she is at least a friend. To have found a friendly face in a place like this and at a time like this is almost a miracle. [color=silver]"I'm sorry,"[/color] Jina murmurs after a moment, smiling more genuinely this time and taking a step towards Khalia. [color=silver]"You're right...

If she was at home right now her father would take her in his arms and hold her there, keep her steady and safe until she had calmed down.
