[ way better to die hugging than most of the other options.
he let poe lean against him on the train for a while, a solid warm line up his side. he and poe were reaching for each other's hands all over the place while they were walking around. the hug is... better??? he doesn't even care that poe gunned it without getting an answer.
maybe that's just the relief of not getting chased off with a broom talking. it's true though. it's better. it's a good thing. it doesn't hurt. it doesn't have to trace back to anything raw and missing.
his heart's still on its pounding One Fear bullshit, but he can be bothered to hug back, which goes 0-100 from "is it okay if i do that" to "oh cool my actual lifeline" immediately. the whole paradigm shifts. poe might be the most real and solid thing in the universe. ]
I'm sorry.
[ tfw u probably wouldn't cry if someone shot u, but then u get one hug from a nice person even though you yelled at them, and they say everything is gonna be okay like they really believe it, and you don't have to go back and you don't have to be by yourself. there's some crying happening for sure.
one day they'll get through a whole entire day without crying. one day finn might even be almost stable as a human being and look back on the ol' crying days and shake his head. but it's not today fam. ]
