Little!Tai who is completely inconsolable: she keeps having flashbacks to that night with the wolves and she's so, so scared. Everyone's tried to help with distractions and comfort but it's not working, even Van's tried but Tai just struggles to get away from them and keeps screaming that they're (Van's) hurt.
Eventually teen!Shauna comes downstairs to see what the ruckus is about - that isn't the usual screaming she hears, this ones a different voice - and sees its Tai. She tries her hand at kneeling in front of her and catching her attention and to everyone's surprise... it works.
Shauna, shocking everyone and making Van a little jealous, takes Tai up to her room to stay away from prying eyes and just sits with her until she's calm enough to snuggle up. Shauna calls for someone to bring up a bottle and she just lays with Tai, reading her stories and watching Tai doze (albeit very fitfully) for a little bit.
((As soon as Tai's calmer and had as much of a chat with Shauna as she can (Tai's about a toddler right now) Van hesitantly comes in and Tai latches onto them, smooshing her hands into Van's face to make sure they're 100% okay. At dinner that night, Van is subjected to Tai's sloppy feeding because they were too soft to say no when Tai wanted to make sure they 'had a full tummy'))
