Letting her speak, maybe whatever was making him feel comfortable opening up, was doing the same for her? He'd been around a few times before, when she'd seemed to need someone to lean on--and he was a good listener.
Weak though? Going through loss didn't make someone weak. Grief was part of life. Giving up...that made you weak. Maybe trying to go numb had been her way of giving up? It made a weird sort of sense, even as he just listened.
"I've never been numb." No, Trunks had always felt--far too much.
