["That's that," she says. Eustace questions whether he should push or let it be. It's clear she's not comfortable, ready, or willing to talk about her dream...and truthfully he doesn't need to know, either. In the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter too much as what happened in the past can stay there, but sometimes they can return to rear their ugly heads. And if she has another nightmare having some understanding could help.
Yet seeing her like this, her outline a dim shadow in the moonless night, he lets it go and remains silent. If she wants to open up to him that's her choice. He can't really say much since he would be the same. And since she's not questioning about what he saw in his own memories, he won't speak about it. It would likely make things worse.
It's at these times he wishes he was more outgoing and knew how to better comfort her. So he just sighs and slips his arm around her shoulders to pull her to him for something like a hug.]
...Let's not think about this anymore and try to get some rest.
