[Zelgadis's jaw is tightly clenched, his fists even moreso, as he braces himself for what he knows is coming. A scene that's replayed itself endlessly in his head, in his nightmares, again and again.
But the hug is unexpected. Unfamiliar.

Then finally, he lets out a short breath he hadn't realized he was holding, and takes another. His hands relax, and the tension lifts.]
