You clutch the Princess, needing her strength, her encouragement, her compassion after all you've been through.

You feel her warmth and listen to her heartbeat through the warm rubber that encases her. You can't see her face beneath her mask, and for a moment you fear that she'll push you away.

You feel her legs wrapping themselves around you, holding you tight.

She won't push you away.

She'll be here as long as you need her.
