This time he does manage to reach out to her, fingers skimming her sleeve almost tentatively, like he's not sure whether or not she'll dissolve under his touch. When it turns out she's solid, he steps a little closer, some of the tension leaving his shoulders. He exhales, and there's relief in it, like some missing part of him is slotting back into place.
She hasn't even been gone that long--but he already knows that she doesn't remember being here with him. Maybe it's best to just treat this like none of that ever happened at all.]
