The Sunspire double overtime

Ty was quick to begin spilling her story once asked, which startled him a little. He was not quite prepared for the anger in her voice. It struck him as sounding so unnatural, and it reminded him slightly of the girl he'd met near Ankyra Sound when she'd spit such angry words out at him. It sounded off--misplaced. It was there, but it didn't belong. Sympathy was quick to overtake the surprise and curiosity at her tone as he spied the shame and anguish in her eyes, particularly as it washed over her features and caused her to falter and drop.

"You're not as bad, Ty," he consoled. After a moment of awkward hesitation, he finally swept around her and set his sturdy form against her weak one, as though he could somehow lend his strength to her, "You said what was in your heart in the heat of the moment before your mind could reason with it, that's all. You're not terrible." Summer looked towards her face, watching to see if his words were helping her at all. He bit his lip, struggling to figure out how exactly to explain to her why she wasn't terrible, but he was having difficulty figuring out the words, especially since his tongue was starting to feel like play-dough in his mouth.
