[ Hey, her world is full of clichés, this ain't nothin' new. So she nods along, rather interested in her world and all its zaniness. I mean, hot damn, that all sounds exciting and fun! She's even smiling brightly a few times, wanting more details.
But, oof, that got dark real quick. She winces, and then when it seems like Amy's exhausted herself, Della doesn't hesitate to put both arms around her and hold her close.
It's really sinking in now how young Amy is - or at least Della thinks she's young. Maybe in Amy's world, hedgehogs age differently. But right now, Della sees a young girl who's been through WAY too much. Does she even have any friends here from home, aside from Edgy Nudist, who probably isn't offering much in the way of comfort? ]
... I'm really sorry, Amy. I truly am.
[ It's not a situation where either of them has done anything wrong, but it's just the sort of thing one says in this situation. ]
