Summary: Dorothy isn't good at being gentle.
"What's wrong with you?"
Relena turned slightly, brushing a hand over her eyes carefully to dash away tears, letting her hair fall just so to hide any remaining tearstains. "I'm fine... Dorothy."
"You don't look it."
Relena stiffens a little as Dorothy comes to lean against the railing beside her, their bodies so close she can feel Dorothy's warmth.
"I was just..."
"Moment of weakness?"
Relena shrugged slightly and Dorothy looked a little stricken.
"I didn't mean to -- "
"It's okay."
Dorothy relaxed a little, putting a hand on her shoulder and rubbing gently. "I'm not used to comforting people. I'm best at taunting people into action."
"It's okay."
