Simon wrapped his arms and tail around Chloe, hugging her tightly and securely against his warmth.
"You wear your heart on your sleeve Chloe. It's not a bad thing, it's what makes you you. But it means that when people try to hurt you they hurt you bad. And you do what comes naturally. I don't know what happened today but I'm sure you didn't start it.
"And... I think I can understand how you felt. I mean, when I was training as a teen back at the Institute, when I discovered some new way to use my abilities it was such a rush. It was like a high and I didn't want to do anything else until I was exhausted. I think that might be what happened with you, that and the whole fight or flight instinct."
Simon kissed the top of Chloe's head softly. "And... having a girlfriend who turns into a dinosaur is kind of cool."
