Crane stood up from his seat and ran towards Renzille, his excitement evident in his face.
He barreled into her, wrapping his arms around her in a tight hug, taking her by surprise, causing Renzille to stumble slightly because she was caught off guard by the unexpected display of affection from Crane.

She brushed her fingers gently through his hair, trying to offer him comfort while still trying to make sense of the situation.
