(kate, you're preaching to the choir. he knows exactly what she's doing, distraction over facing things, and he also knows she won't talk if he doesn't press - and the worst part is, he doesn't intend to. old habits die hard, and if he's needed to make her forget her sorrows, then it may so be. if she wants to get it out of her head, he'll give her a good reason to. this is, after all, what he's good at.
the kiss is calculated in every way. gentle enough not to trigger, but in no way passive or uninterested as his tongue goes to meet hers, hands moving to her hips to bring them close to his own.)
