This is your heart undone, Take all the time you want
You don't mind at all that he's taking his frustration and trauma out on you. It's your job to endure this sort of thing, and you do so with an understanding smile. "Normally I would say you're right. But with what you've told me, with all the people potentially at risk, are you sure you want to take that chance?" The core of Finn is good, or so you still desperately believe despite all that's happened to him.
"For what?" You ask brightly, easily able to absolve Finn of this particular sin, even if you can't extend your grace to the rest of them. The mention of a new demigod, one touched by Vi, has you appropriately stunned. "And.." You blink. "..so you.." You lick your lips. Nope, you're absolutely not ready to understand this right now, and you think that's okay.
Gods, you hope that's okay.
"Well, first things first." You mumble, before reaching out for Finn's hand. "Let's get this bandaged up, mm?" So saying, you begin to clean and disinfect the wound. You expect it to sting, but there's little you can do about it. It isn't bad enough to resort to your secret unicorn-shard stash, but given what Finn has been through, this is hardly the worst of what's likely on his mind.

& some will try to help
But there is freedom in breaking down
