That smile, my heart feels full-- this is more than he really expected out of trying to cheer Anya up, and it fills him with warmth in turn. He's not sure what to say to it, searching for the words and failing (and wondering for a moment if this must be something like how Anya feels, right now.)]
...yeah. You and me both, kiddo.
[He ruffles her hair affectionately before he pulls back, realizes he's messed it up right before school, and tries to start smoothing it back out again casually. It's fine. This is fine.]
But we'll worry about starting that later, alright? Are you gonna need a ride to school?
