[ Dhaos pays attention to Urashima as he speaks, as the painful memories resurface anew. At the very least, he knew the other listens intently, from his actions and those eyes.
When Urashima hugs him, his mind goes blank for a moment, as he didn't expect it. His hands tremble, along with the rest of himself at Urashima's actions and words. When's the last time someone hugged him? It must have been whilst he was still oh-so-very young. When's the last time someone bothered to listen to his reasons for why he disliked humans?
Never.
And saying something like that?
Dhaos' hands hover, uncertain, until moving to encircle the other a bit. How can he even begin to explain how much this means to him?
He tries to say something, and manages to get out Urashima's name. The rest doesn't come and he hopes that will have to do for now. ]
