Well that took away any concerns over what she might welcome.
Ophelia vacated entirely, willing to flutter nearby and paws clutched in her scarf. Calming down from her initial fright, and looking around them. Trying to take a headcount and be useful. Of course she also stayed near Orpheus, in case he still needed comforting too.
When she moved closer, especially as Ophelia moved away, Vincent had no problem with Lucrecia clinging. So careful, always so careful of his left hand covered in the metal gauntlet and talons, slid around her waist. The hold wasn't quite as tight as when he'd pulled her off the rope and then tried to shield her, but the relief was clear all the same. Relief she was alive, was there and safe, her hand squeezed slightly tighter as well.
"I'm sorry..." But there was a hint of question in the tone, even as he meant it still. She had to know, Vincent would've done it all the same whether he expected to be revived or not. There were still too many complicated things between them.
