The vertically impared girl listened as Dan spoke. She was good at that. Listening...

"Thanks, Rin." He leaned foreward, hugging her with one arm. A light blush dusted her cheeks as the appendage drapped over her. He was warm, in a bearable way of course. She enjoyed the feeling. She used to get hugs from her Aunt, but those had always been quick 'i'll-be-back-by-dinner' type of hugs. Not really comforting, not much emotion. Damien was apologetic though and she could tell from the emotion he put in it. It had been gentle and not bone-crushing, like he was trying to squeeze the life out of her. It made the girl smile.

“Let us go find ourselves a shelter. You never know when rain starts pouring down on the ground, plus, I think more clear when I have a roof above my head.” He said, standing and letting her go from the hug. The gentle smile he gave her only made her mouth widen more in her own happy smile. Looking up at him a tad (saying this would make her frown), she noticed his head was moving different angles to check for spots.

"Yeah, smart idea." she chuckled, also looking around. Rin rubbed the back of her neck in embarassment when she couldn't spot anything. "Uhm, how about you lead the way?"
