It is a funny thing to see a person you have always somehow looked up to, look back at you like he's at a total and utter loss. 'Unsure' and 'unsteady' are not words she has ever associated with Alistair Mordechai. 'Reliable' and 'confident', are. You are the man who gets the job done.

She reaches out to set her hand over yours; tentative, gentle. Even if she isn't entirely sure if she can provide what it is you might need.
