"I shouldn't need help!" She finally bursts out, tears finally falling. She turns to face him, eyes wide and scared, ears flat against her head. "I shouldn't- I don't want to be a burden on anyone! I wanted to be strong, so I could protect people, so I could help others! I shouldn't- I shouldn't be the one who needs help instead..." She hunches her shoulders, trying to hide her tears, but it doesn't work.
