[ Alibaba has to bite his tongue when it's her hand that starts wandering up his arm, his eyes wide as they dart back to her face. He's just about to say something, because she seems to have lost herself in the sensations, when he sees realization crash back into her and she jerks back away from him once more.

It's almost impossible to miss that flash of jumbled emotions, and even if he doesn't know why she feels them, he's experienced them enough on his own to recognize them in someone else.

He keeps his hands where she can see them still, slowly lowering them back to his sides. ]

Are you alright? [ His voice is gentle and genuinely concerned as he searches her face, a little uncertain now. ] Did that... I didn't hurt you, did I?

[ He's pretty sure he hadn't been the actual cause of that slap of emotions, but he was worried all the same. ]

And... this sounds terrible, but I'm not sure that matters a whole lot here. We still need Chroma to survive in this place.
