She's been fairly good at keeping herself together, she thinks, jumping over hurdles and rolling with the punches without too much emotional bruising. This is difficult to just take in stride, and she's sure she feels it clawing at whatever is pent up in a bottle somewhere in Steph's mind.
She's also pretty sure Kate wouldn't punch her if she went in for a hug, but awkwardly standing there is probably better than awkwardly clinging to a woman who probably didn't like her all that much.
Steph just nods her head, wiping at her eyes, not confident in the stability of her voice.]
