Being the comforting authority figure wasn't his thing; hell, he was hardly a warrior himself, at just sixteen moons!
Swallowing, he lifted a forepaw and tugged her closer to him, awkwardly patting her on the back. "Well, I- I'm here now, so... don't worry, I'm not going to go anywhere. Just... let it out, I'm here."
You know what's crew? Screw stirring the pot for now. "Chin up, kid. It'll be over soon."

Emberpaw snuffled and lifted her gaze to meet Lynxfuzz. Her eyes shone with tears and terror, and she tried to quell her shivering but it wouldn't stop. The small, dark orange she-cat nodded solemnly, snuggling into her mentor's chest fur. His presence alone was comforting, and while she was still scared, she felt a little safer. "T-T-Thank y-you... L-Lynxfuzz," she stuttered, although her fear-laden speech seemed to be abating.
