[ she sets her hand on his head and tussles his hair. ] ...no need to apologize. I know it's hard, but I hope that it starts getting easier. If there's anything I can do I'd like you to please let me know, okay? [ removes her hand and motions for him to join her inside. ] Do you want to just hang out inside my bedroom or do you want to go into the temple again or, ah, we could even just chillax in the shop...
[ ... ]
Oh! or if you're feeling hungry I can make you something to eat! Just let me know, Levi, I'll do anything.
[Levity sits down, but the touch to his waist makes him tense up. It's not quite close enough to his stomach to send him into a full flashback, but it's still--
Still--
He breathes out carefully, putting his hand on her tail to pull it away gently. It breaks his heart to do so, to be unable to be affectionate with his loved ones anymore, but he knows it would hurt D.Va even more if he tries to force himself to endure it.]
[ summoning her aibou, cujo, she orders him to fetch them a couple different kinds of doritos. and some mountain dew! and then... oh. she doesn't know how she keeps just... forgetting. it's a habit. being close to people, but she absolutely does *not* want to force him to endure it, because seeing him uncomfortable is breaking her heart. ]
[ she lets him move it away and she, instead, curls it around herself, constricting more tightly that she probably meant. ]
Don't apologize.
Is there... anything I can do to help ease the pain?

It doesn't escape Levity that she wants to hug him--but can't, and it breaks his heart too. To make up, though, he inclines his head.]
I'm sorry, love... I still--struggle with touch. But you can pet my head. We've figured out that it's safe, and it feels nice...

Re: day 328
Ah, a salad or something of the sort would be good? Or just snacks... I mainly avoid meat now.

[ leads him to the bed and takes a seat, tugging him beside her. flops over for the moment and curls her tail around his waist. ]
