[It is indeed a cunning trap. A clever ploy constructed entirely out of Kara's own inability to deal with certain things, mainly that someone as smart and successful as Annalise would ever possibly be interested in spending any significant length of time with her. Though, that inability is beginning to come apart, after hearing all of what she'd said before.]

...I don't see why. You're severe, but that's not an un-cute trait.

[Her arm hooks around Annalise's, holding tight, but not too tight. She doesn't want to push her away, this is just one of the few ways she knows to show honest appreciation. Compliments, hugs, physical affection.]

Does that bother you? I'm sorry, if I'm making you feel uncomfortable. You just...you really leave an impression.
