OOC here!
A light hand touched Hadley, eliciting a jump from him. He stared wide eyed at Omni as she spoke. Hadley had deserved the punishment in his mind, twisted to the point where he believed everything Amy had told him, despite his fear. Hearing that she felt like she should have been punished Hadley shook his head wordlessly. Nobody deserved what Amy had done. He'd take the injuries again if it would stop Omni from looking so helpless.
The loss of her touch was the same as a knife slicing through his skin, leaving him exposed to what was around him. He shivered slightly before she talked again. Gently Hadley lifted his head, staring out at the chilly ocean that had embraced them so recently. The warmth of the fire removed the chill, though remnants of salt would probably be found through his fur tomorrow. Casa. Not hurt anymore. Omni moved closer, and Hadley leaned into her, letting the past brush his fear away.
