[Logan doesn't say anything. He pulls his hands from his pockets and for a moment, it's like he's not entirely sure what to do with them. And then he's putting his hands on her shoulders and tugging her toward him. Come on, Mimmi. Let him hug you.]
[Mimmi was momentarily surprised. Because, well, unexpected much? But she didn't resist. Instead she wrapped her arms around him, pressed her face against his shoulder, and sobbed.]
[Mimmi very much wants to believe that, but nothing is okay. Nothing had been okay for a long, long time. Thing's stopped being okay back on the ship, once everything started going to hell.
During that fucking Halloween party.
So she just nods and clings to him and doesn't let go.]
[Translation: NOPE.]

And no, no it is not fine. Logan promised to protect you.]
Should've been there.

[She shrugged her shoulders and sighed.]
Back where I was before, I had a friend. He used to always beat himself up if something happened to me. I hope you will not do the same.

[Logan sighs.]
I'll just make sure nothing happens to you next time.

We will see what happens, ja?
[Jeez, all this pessimism. You'd think she was always like this.]

[He's not entirely sure how true that is. But damnit, he's gonna try and keep his word this time.]

[He gives her a squeeze, before stepping back and brushing a finger across her cheek.]
I promise.
[Srsly, if you need him, all you gotta do is call and he'll come running.]
