[Oh, how much Rhys wants to believe that. Guilt still twists in his mind, though it settles a bit at hearing those words from his victim's lips.
He wasn't lying when he said that he didn't do that sort of thing. Normally he was so painfully careful about consent, so intent on not taking from people. There had been a time in his life when he'd been less careful, but he regretted that time with a deep and abiding ache.]
Thank you. It might take me some time to believe that, but...thank you.
[He lets his breath out in a low sigh.]
How are you feeling? Are you taking care of yourself? You, uh. Should start to feel better in a few days.
