[That’s a very sad memory about sisters! It’s such a shame he can’t relate at all. It takes a minute for all the sad and scared - being so scared that you might have hurt her beyond repair, being scared of your powers - to drain away. And then he rubs his forehead again.]
[elsa crumbles. first, to her knees, then slumps to the floor, face in her hands.
she's not crying. but she's not making any sound at all. her expression, hidden, is unreadable—but the arms taako has his hands on are tense, bunched, unmoving.
it's a long, long, long moment before elsa moves again, removing her hands, eyes damp but not wet, staring blankly ahead. almost robotically, she answers.]

Hey, woah— okay, um, it’s okay! It’s cool, you’ll— they come back sometimes! You just have to wait, it sucks, but they come back!
