It was a slippery slope, yes, but that wasn’t the main reason behind her asking. She was worried about him. HIM, not whether or not he would Fall. She knew he wouldn’t, however close he might have come to killing out of anger. Her faith in him was almost as strong as her faith in the Force. And stronger than her faith in herself at the moment.
It was why, too, that meant something to her. What it meant. She had been somewhat aware for a very long time (and extremely aware since their last mission together) that she hadn’t put aside her feelings for him the way they had agreed. Not as well as she should have. But she had buried them. Denied them. Refused to acknowledge them. Never acted on them once the agreement had been made. Done as much as she could even though there was no ridding herself of them.
“Good. I... Good.” She should move away from him, drop her hand from his cheek... but she didn’t.
