[ There aren't words that Glimmer feels make sense in this frantic moment of tangled fear and hope and grief and pain. There is too much happening and it is all she can do to anchor herself to Ellie, to try and hold her and hopefully keep her from slipping free. She has a feeling Ellie is at least partially telling her this in a bid to make sure that Glimmer knows so that Glimmer can reject her now. Is that her thought or something she's getting from Ellie through the emotional exchange? She can't tell and she's not sure it matters anymore.
The tangled pieces of memory flit between them. Glimmer confronted by her friends and refusing to let go of her idea, obsessed with finally ending the war. Glimmer threatening someone with magic. Someone helpless, unable to resist any longer. Fragments of her own obsession and helplessness and grief-driven desire to fix things. She trembles, holds Ellie closer. ]
I don't want to lose you.
[ The words are hers. Are Ellie's. Are Dina's. Are Angella's. So many voices all speaking the same words to different people and to the same person all at once. She has known Ellie for a bare few weeks and already it feels as if the world might crash down on her if Glimmer were to lose her. ]
