As she walked outside with Aetrius, Linde was very calm. Even as Aetrius began to bare her soul and seemed on the verge of tears, Linde remained calm on the outside. She gazed at Aetrius with compassion and concern, and as Aetrius leaned on the Gambling Den's wall, Linde took several steps towards her until she walked around and stood in front of the bounty hunter.

As she did so, Lonan bid them farewell, going back to the inn.

When he had left, Linde turned to Aetrius and reached out with her hands to gently pull Aetrius into a hug. And when she was safely cradled in Linde's arms, Linde reached up and gently stroked Aetrius' cheek with the backs of her fingers.

"First, you are who you are Aetrius. If I asked you to change or hide yourself from me in any way, what kind of person could I call myself?" She cooed.

Her embrace was gentle, but tightened slightly.

"Second. Your relationship with your sister is your business. And if you are not ready to share anything with me I will not ask that you force yourself to."

Her strokes came to a stop, and her hand cupped Aetrius' cheek, stroking her cheek just below the eye with her thumb.

"Third... I understand your need to get your sister back. Believe me... I know... But until you get her back, you have more than you think."

Linde slowly brought her other hand to Aetrius' other cheek and lifted her face, so they were looking each other in the eyes.

"You have Lonan, Kyero, Okumi... And me." She said softly.

She leaned forward and kissed Aetrius' forehead before gently pulling her face down to rest on her chest. Aetrius' chin was resting on Linde's cleavage, while her forehead was against Linde's throat as Linde turned her head sideways to rest on top of Aetrius' head.

"We aren't your sister, and we aren't family. At least not by blood. But the five of us have become something of a family, albeit a very odd one." She chuckled, once again stroking Aetrius' hair and her cheeks with the backs of her fingers.

After a moment, she helped Aetrius look at her face to face again, holding both of Aetrius' cheeks in her soft, (seemingly) delicate hands.

"If you wish to be alone, Aetrius, I will return with Lonan to the inn and await your return. But I expect to see you again before long, because I refuse to let you go through any of this alone. Do you understand?"

Her tone was authoritative, but gentle. No real force or pushiness behind it at all. Just a sweet, gentle, authoritative tone.
