[Rogue's lips twitch up in a brief smile before she sobers.]

Yeah.

[She glances down at her gloves and speaks, her voice low, controlled, and vehement.]

Every day I put these things on. Every day.

[She tugs one hand loose from the glove and raises her head. She stretches the bare hand out in Billy's direction.]

Wantin' to touch someone is natural, don't you think? 'course, if I were to touch you right now...

[She lets her voice trail off and drops her hand back down to her lap. Rogue starts tugging on the glove again.]
