Shang Beida honestly might rather go back with Casper than have Casper come back with him. Then he could fight the people who had been mean to Casper, and also, his king wouldn't... potentially conflict with Casper over his spy's... loyalties.
Casper pulling him in is nice, and being leaned into, and... Shit. He-- he's not sure if he should touch Casper right now or if it would make it worse.
"Shh, baobei, 心爱, it's-- well it's not okay, obviously, but I'm not-- upset at you or anything. Do you need me to, to go, or? It's not your fault, baobei. You're-- being traumatized isn't your fault either. I don't want to do anything you aren't comfortable with." He does not know how to help! Touching Casper helped down below in the plants, but that was-- Casper wasn't upset by him, then. He's pretty sure this is different. Different source of trauma.
