She curls gratefully toward him, head on his shoulder to better hear his voice in his chest when he speaks. Sweeney wasn't meant to tell anyone, but she can't muster the energy to be angry about it. She hadn't asked him to keep it quiet, and she doesn't like hiding things from Godric anyway.
"I love you," she murmurs, because knowing he'd reacted is the same thing she would have done if their roles were reversed. He's family, full stop, and she would have no regrets at all about protecting him.
"Sweeney was having so much fun, so it wasn't at all like before. But it also wasn't like when I'd wrestle my brothers. It's just like trying to open something that's never gonna budge...I don't know how to say it better. It felt better to make him laugh and in a sick way to get hit, and it made me feel worse because I couldn't have the fun I used to."
