Ah - Lakshmi goes still, moving with the gesture because at the very least, her hair is a good hold. It is thick, rather than soft. "Perhaps not too much, I did jump into the fade trying to get back to them and my duty."
Because she doesn't stop her hand, though her own lifts, to catch Teren's own by the wrist. Bracing, not to drive her away but meets her eye firmly. It is tempting, she quite likes Teren, quite enjoys her company, and would not object it. "My heart belongs elsewhere, but I ended it with them... and otherwise, I will always be Rani." But for all that she means it, and perhaps wants to sound unaffected - her tongue swipes her bottom lip, swallowing down. "I do not wish to use you or mislead for my own selfishness and admiration of you. Only do this if you know it goes nowhere and you can not ask me for anything else."
