the reactions to nora coming in were just heart-wrenching. the way that all three of the younger siblings were crying--together--the twins comforting elias, who was so relieved to see nora that he broke down. jeremy's nonchalant reception, a testament to his absolute faith in nora and that he really would come, even if it killed him. and shuri's figure--hand clutching her chest, head bowed, shoulders slumped...a stark difference to her stiff, stark postures and expressions when she felt as though she were fighting a battle for her family's lives on her own. with nora's arrival, that burden is lifted; her family is saved; she is given a second chance at life.
