He thought nothing of it when Terra had initially reached out to take the Warrior’s hand in her own, his gloved one nearly swallowing her’s in comparison but it seemed the safety of the hold brought about a sense of comfort to the esper, so he let it be--his mind rationalized it as a way to not get separated, the cave they were exploring was rather dark but there was no monster nor manikins to worry about.
He thought nothing of it again once they made it back outside, the knight raising his free hand to shield his eyes from the blinding sunlight and once more it seemed that they were safe for the time being. Terra did not let go of his hand. He thought nothing of it and on their way they went, surely to make time and catch up with the others.
It wasn’t until some time had passed that it happened. Light became alerted to his arm suddenly moving and not due to his own moving. Looking down towards his companion, the Warrior was met with the sight of Terra, content and sweet Terra, swinging their joined hands together as they strolled--like she simply could not contain her joy and thus had to tow him along in it. The smile on her lips and the brightness of her violet eyes tugged at his heartstrings and the Warrior could do naught but laugh softly at the sight.
When this drew Terra’s attention and thus her own inquiry if the action brought the stern knight discomfort--Light was quick to reassure her. To emphasize his assurance, the knight lifted her tiny hand and pressed a small kiss to her knuckles, giving the outside view of the knight and his maiden fair.
“ You may hold on for as long as you need...” he says then, warmth melting the corners of his stern gaze and when it was returned from his dear friend, they carried on their way, hand in hand.
