With Dan's cut disinfected and the blood cleaned out of his hair, there's no reason for Aster to keep his hand on Dan's face except that he wants to do it, and with Dan leaning into his hand, plaintively looking into his eyes and declaring he doesn't want to hurt monsters, ones that have already hurt him, he almost leans in for a kiss.

He wants to do it. Dan would probably let him. It would feel so good. It just wouldn't be ethical.

Aster gets only the barest lean in before he stops himself, withdrawing his hand from Dan's jaw, busying himself packing up the first aid kit. "Yeah. I don't want to hurt them either."

But he's glad to know the light works, even if it works better than he wishes it would. He has a means to keep the angry women in the woods off his friends, but they're no closer to communicating with them, or getting answers about why they're there.

"What -" he casts around for something to talk about, other than how badly he wants to kiss his employee and won't. "How much of this do you think we should tell Lady about? See if she'll let us look at that theory board of hers again?"
