[ She doesn't need to say a thing. At least, not so far as Hannibal is concerned.
As soon as Xion turns to give him that look of such hurt, there's very little hesitation in what comes next. He closes that distance between them, and carefully, he wraps his arms around her in a gentle hug. One hand rests on her back while the other holds her head, and though it's not any kind of hold that's hard to break away from, it's meant to feel secure and safe. It's as if maybe he'd been wanting to do this for her all day, but hadn't wanted to make those walls come crumbling down. But now?
Now, it feels like it may be better if they do. If only for a little while. ]
