070: [Accidental Video Post]

Rain is sitting curled up on a rock deep, deep in the woods, very far from her own home. Her backpack is beside her, her batteries held tightly in one hand, as she stares off into the trees. If one were to listen carefully, you could probably hear the low whisper of a chant.

Rain looked at him a little warily, then slowly nodded. "Okay. if you want."

It made her feel better, too, being close to his mind. Like at the carnival when she'd kind of sheltered a little on the edges of it to keep from being overwhelmed by all the people.

So very carefully she slid into his mind, listening to his thoughts, wondering what she'd see and feel there.

"Thank you."

Tony's mind was a very busy place, as he was constantly connected to so many different computers and devices at once. Forefront in his mind at the moment was his concern for Rain, how much he cared for her, and how important she was to him.

Carefully controlled there was also a small big of anger at whoever made her hurt like this. Mixed in there also were his slightly uncertain feelings regarding Romana.

The business didn't bother her. She just found a quieter corner of his mind and curled up there, letting everything wash over her. His care and concern was so strong and so real that it almost made her cry again. She was quite sure no one had ever cared about her like that before - not since her mother.

The thoughts about Romana hurt a little, but she'd known it wouldn't be long before he found someone else and Rain knew it would never be her.

The anger... "It's not their fault," she said softly. "It isn't."

The feeling of having her in his mind was odd, but he liked it. It made him feel like he could protect her even more.

"I'm trying hard to believe that," Tony replied back, just as softly. "But you're the most important person in my life and it makes me angry that someone hurt you this much. Even if it wasn't their fault."

Rain liked being there. It made her feel more whole - less broken.

"I hurt me," she told him. "because I get all upset and confused about everything."

Tony was tempted to argue that point with her but he didn't want to argue with her at the moment.

"We might just have to agree to disagree about that," he finally said.

She nodded, having heard most of his mental struggle anyway. "That's fine with me. And... I like that you want to keep me safe."

"I would protect you from everything if I could," he confessed to her.

"I know," she said, sounding a little bewildered. "I can see that. I don't understand, but I can see."
