As a victim of CSA who once was once in a similar position, you have no idea how much trust Cirrus now has in Skylar, because it is such a hard thing to come to terms with on your own. Much less to share with someone else. I don't think anyone else who hasn't experienced it will fully understand how much faith Cirrus put into Skylar at that moment. To be able to tell him what happened only knowing him for as long as he has speaks volumes on how desperate he is for any connection and really goes to show just how isolated he has been till now. I still haven't told any of my friends about that part of myself and I'm older than him. And I still haven't gotten the help that i know i need yet(though I work on myself as best as i can) but I really hope moving on with the story that he gets the mental help he needs. Healing takes time and it doesn't just all magically go away because you want it to. It's something that stays with you forever and I hope Cirrus gets a good support system in Skylar even if they don't end up together in the end.
