Trying to comfort her was distressing because she cried for much longer than she had the first time. All of this was too much for her fragile human sensibilities to handle.
She went back to her apartment to shower, change, and grab some snacks before they went back and gave him a brave attempt at a smile. "I can share them with you if you want. I brought a bunch."
"Keep them for yourself. You need them more," Zeldris said, despite how much he liked human snacks.
