[ah... sent back. That does make sense. A different kind of sadness that's no less potent. Colette isn't really familiar with that feeling yet, but she knows the basic underlying feelings. So she hugs Rise as tight as she can (without it being painful) and rubs her back]
You'll be okay, you're really strong! [she can tell that from the few interactions that she's had, so her tone is genuine]
[Rise won't be letting go anytime soon. At least while she's clinging to Colette, she can be absolutely certain that someone she knows isn't going to be taken away from her.]
Y-yeah... I know...
[Unfortunately, right now, she doesn't believe for a second that she's strong. She thinks it's really nice that Colette would honestly think so highly of her, but she doesn't believe it.
