[His emotions begin to flow into her, as naturally as if they were her own.
There's guilt, as he warned. Guilt that she and others were harmed for his sake, guilt that he hasn't done enough to reassure her of his love for her. Guilt that she's in this state, when perhaps he should have come up with a less traumatic way to keep her from hurting anyone. Guilt that he didn't help her make decisions during this game because he felt he couldn't ask more of her when she was already protecting him.
But there's love, too, deep and unshakable. Concern for her being so hurt, and relief that she wasn't hurt worse than this by the game. A warm affection that naturally arises when he snuggles into her, and a willingness to do anything to bring her joy again.]
