Work Text:
Rae and Claire were hanging out at the Foundation Day Festival, and Rae bought a good luck charm for Claire, saying she hoped things went well with Thane. Claire thought that was strange.
“You’ve said you love me, right?” Claire asked. “Then why would you support my love for someone else?”
“Why not? You’re not interested in me anyway, so it doesn’t make a difference, does it? There’s no reason for me not to support you.”
“I guess that’s true,” Claire agreed. “I’m curious, why are you so taken with me?”
“Because you saved me.”
Claire looked at Rae quizzically. “What? That doesn’t make any sense.”
Rae shrugged. “You can save me now, if you’d like. Specifically with a hug or a kiss.”
“Um, that still doesn’t make sense, but okay, sure.” And then Claire gave Rae a hug.
