Ayyyyye home skillet, when you get a sec, lemme get some "Kissing tears from the other’s face" headcanons for a concerned Xenia and a weepy MC

“Pointy” the horrid nickname rang through her head, dredging up purposely forgotten memories of the past. The humiliation stung worse than anything, filling MC with an overwhelming sense of despair and embarrassment.
Though she wouldn’t give Tansy the satisfaction of seeing her cry, no that would be something that would happen in private. As soon as she closed the door to her room, large droplets of tears rolled freely down her cheeks with no sign of stopping.
MC wasn’t sure whether she sat crying for minutes or hours, but suddenly her shaking body was pulled into the gentle embrace of another. Based on the unusual, although familiar number of arms and the comforting scent, it could only be Xenia.
As multiple arms moved rhythmically along her back, more sobs were released and tears soaked into the fabric of Xenia’s dress. MC was aware of this and tried to apologise, though her words were muffled as her face was buried in the older woman’s chest.
Despite her sobs subsiding, small sniffs could still be heard, and tears periodically ran down her flushed cheeks. Xenia took the opportunity to meet the younger woman’s gaze, a frown pulled on her lips and her brows furrowed in concern.
Xenia acted before she thought, her veil was lifted upwards and her lips pressed gently against MC’s damp cheeks, kissing away the salty tears that dared fall from her stunning green eyes.
MC’s breath hitched, momentarily stunned as a series of pecks were placed along her cheeks. Any tears that were missed were swept away softly with one of Xenia’s thumbs.
“You stood your ground, took the high road, and that was admirable my dear. Her words mean nothing, an attempt to gain a reaction from you, and I am proud you did not give her that opportunity. You are more than she will ever be, and you have something she doesn’t.”
MC cracked out a response, “You?”
“Correct but I intended to point out your big heart, one that sees the best in people and believes in second chances, a scarce quality in this world. Now, how about we visit my spiders? I am sure they would be elated to be in your company once more.”
