[ people have always been easy for alison. she's an extrovert and a conversationalist. understanding people and getting along with them is something she's always had a knack for. and the people that she didn't quite get along with? well, they rolled off her back like water. but loving people and caring about them enough to let them closer than arms length away... that's been difficult for her over the years. especially after trespasser.
that's a big part of why yancy's death and raleigh leaving has shaken her up so much. in the aftermath, she's not sure if she wants someone to hold on to or if she wants to push everyone away. having tendo around has been a blessing in that she doesn't really have to make that decision. alison gets the feeling he wouldn't leave her alone for too long if she pushed, and she doesn't feel right just leaving him to his grief. the give and take between them is keeping her afloat. ]
Will you come over tonight? [ if he's going to be around, she wants to take advantage of the fact that she can actually hold on to him. cuddle time is something she could use right about now. ]
