Re: [BitP:R] Soul Society 3
Orimoto almost stumbled backwards seeing the Captain move towards her but she was embraced before she could move. However, upon realizing it was simply a comforting hug she let the tension leave her muscles and let out the tears as the Captain spoke. She knew all these things, but somehow it helped hearing a Captain say them as opposed to herself.
Each time she had said the same words to herself she tried to put it off as just justification and trying to remove blame, but hearing another person say it helped. It didn't make everything better, but it was comforting just the same.
In addition finally telling the story and letting it all spill out to somebody else had also helped. Sure, she had filled out a report of the mission when she had gotten back, but it wasn't the same as discussing it from an emotional standpoint.
A part of her felt silly sitting here crying, but the rest didn't care and she stayed there for a moment as the Captain spoke. "Thank you..." She mumbled softly unsure what exactly to say.
