[She's not sure who's in the worse situation. Fai and Lovino have all of...that. But the person Lorna loves doesn't want to kiss her or touch her, absolutely broke her heart, yet he still wants to lavish her in gifts and be her friend. She just hasn't told Fai about that last part. At all.

[He flinches when he sees the text, hunching his shoulders a bit and looking thoroughly ashamed.]

I didn't- Well, I didn't mean to- You know how we're always very tactile with each other, right? I just... took it a step too far, and everything got kind of awkward, and I probably enjoyed doing that a little too much, and-

[He sighs, burying his face in his hands.]
