[His eyes dart between each of hers, sensing an uneasiness from her that only radiates more and more the longer they sit there. He can't blame her, they're back where all the action happened, and he catches the sight of her shaking hands as they talk. Strange powers and marks aside, they really were just two people who had a terrifying experience together and barely managed to scrape out of it alive. Without thinking, Ajax reaches down to take both her hands in his, slipping one underneath while covering them over the top with the other. It's unfortunately the only comfort he can give, returning the smile she offers with a gentle one of his own.]

No. They've got others covering for me right now, so any work that pops up they can handle. I was told to rest, and to take care of any important matters first before I return.

[That being the whole interview here today. The company needs those ends tied up to make sure they're not going to get caught.]

I assured them I'd take care of everything, and once I've got things in order I'll go back.

[He rubs her hands a little between his own- it's not exactly great news and he doesn't want her to shake anymore.]

Everything's going to be fine. I promise.
