Who told you so, dilly dilly, Who told you so? ‘Twas my own heart, dilly dilly, That told me so.
ouch is one of the most intimate, romantic ways to be close to someone else. The Town knows this very well -- the Town wants everyone to be as close as possible.
Perhaps that's why this bonding is so...aggressive.
Because you're in for quite the shock on this otherwise peaceful day when you brush against the next person on your path.
Maybe you're going out of your way to touch people. Maybe you've got a terrible urge to just see what's lurking in someone's heart. Maybe you trip over a conveniently placed rock -- whatever the cause, you're getting an up close and personal look into someone else's heart.

[Xie Lian lets out a little puff of breath, almost but not quite a laugh. It's so hard not to smile, when Pyra's around...which is a funny thought, for someone who's managed to keep a smile on his face for centuries now.
But there's something about her that makes him feel more relaxed somehow - like something inside him has loosened, just a little bit.
Maybe it wouldn't be so bad, to share his worries on occasion.
He bows his head, in both acknowledgment and deference to the kindhearted soul before him.]
I'll do my best to keep it in mind...it wouldn't do for a god to ignore his prayers.
[The flower in his hair seems almost to glow as the rest of the world fades away--and they'll find themselves back in the real world again.]
[ And so... the trial has ended. She looks around them as the world fades, the people, the city, the rubble, the mountain all vanish, and eventually her gaze settles back to Xie Lian. ]
[Ah...they're back. It takes a moment for Xie Lian to get his bearings again, looking around at the comfortably real world around them--and back to Pyra, when she speaks.]
I haven't really done anything to be proud of...but thank you.
[It still isn't a particularly wide smile he's got on his face, but he's...content, somewhat. Calm.
It's a smile, however small.]
Your presence is truly a comfort, regardless of the time or place.
