His emotions aren't exactly rock steady, but he's trying -- he's still worried about her, and relieved she's okay if Maine really did attack like she was a threat, but there's also a lot of affection and relief. The traces of fear will echo hers, but he shoves them down, breathing slow and even and trying to project calm. Now that they know, they can deal with it better. Everything will be okay. ]
You want me to wash your back? Then we should get some ice on that bruise.
[ He still hasn't gotten a great look at her face yet, but he will. There's no rush. ]
