You're okay? You're in there... [ In a cell with complete strangers. ] And I'm out here. [ Which means everything is not okay right now. And he doesn't believe she's okay as she says is, just as she didn't when he told her he was fine while hiding some pretty painful wounds.
He looks down at her empty palms between them and it surprises him how much he misses the glow from them, though not as much as she probably does. He didn't think he'd feel that way about her powers, but it's taken time for him to realize they're a part of her and if he wants her in his life, he has to accept that she's special.
Maybe she can't summon light to her hands but she can summon Mal's palms to hers without saying a word, his fingers closing around them, a gesture of comfort. She might have felt like she was alone in this place up until this point, but now she knows she's not. ]
I'll find a way to get you out of here, I promise... Even if I have to trade places with you. [ He mutters that last part because he can't imagine she'd be happy with that arrangement. ]
Who did you punch to get sent down here anyway? [ He can only assume that's what happened. He'd like to know who he has to punch to be imprisoned too, but deep down he knows that would be a stupid move. He can't help her if he's in dungeons too. He needs to stay above ground and gather more information about their whereabouts. ]
