[ It's probably for the better that she doesn't, least she unlocks some accidental bad memories that both of them will regret. Five is feeling a little bit more comfortable with the feeling of having someone else in his mind but seeing Rey cry will never not worry him. It's that worry what made him reach out to touch her, not something he does lightly, and what keeps him from pulling away when she wraps his arms around him in response.

He wouldn't be able to move even if he wanted, Rey's hold on him is stronger than expected. But Five doesn't want to get away, even if he freezes at first at the unexpected touch. When was the last time someone hugged him? Was it Grace? or maybe Vanya? A long, long, time ago, before he accidentally ended in a ruined future? He can't remember.

It feels...nice. Warm. God, he misses this so much. Gently, Five wraps his arms around her in return and gives Rey a squeeze. He rubs small circles on her back, not trying to hush her or make her stop, just to offer some comfort. ]
