( It's ben a long night and it's only getting longer. Something in the air, or the shadows, or the fact that they seem to carry so many similar scars, means that Shin's request is answered with exhaustion
and crumbling.
Kate leans forward into Shin, her arms wrapping around his back and pulling him in close, because she's fucking exhausted and she has been for a long time. Holding herself together, taut and stoic for the sake of the little family she has left, from the moment the police explained that her parents were gone until now, here in hell on a fucking wing and a prayer that she can bring them back... )
This is all I can do. ... It's the only way to help my brother.
( She's not smart. She barely scraped an acceptable amount of exams in the first place. The only way she has left, the only hope of making a difference to her brother's life, is the army or hell. )
