It feels like forever before she's exhausted herself in his arms, having no more energy for the sobs to go with the steady stream of tears and her mind has gone completely blank with the numb feeling of resignation that settles over her body. Ariel's always been a fighter, but this feels like the odds way too far against her and she doesn't think she can do it.
She almost clings harder when she feels Dick starting to move, but instead, she takes in a shaking breath when he starts to wipe away her tears. She'd assumed she would be with Eric by now. She assumed that she'd already have been welcomed into his arms and his castle and his heart and now she doesn't know what's going to happen to her. Dick says they're not going to let Ursula take her but Ariel isn't so sure there's anything that they can do to stop it.
What am I supposed to do now...? I don't have anywhere to go, I don't... her voice trails off in the psychic link and her head tilts down as she wills herself not to start crying all over again.
