G'raha stares at him for a moment, looking equally perplexed, until understanding dawns and he laughs sheepishly, rubbing his arm.

"I- well, um, that's not- I didn't exactly...."

He trails off for a moment, not quite wanting to explain that, actually, he was sort of trying to be the hero, he just clearly wasn't very good at it. He should just leave it to the professionals, clearly.

He clears his throat awkwardly and shakes his head.

"I suppose I was trying too hard to be something I'm not."

He shrugs, then chuckles slightly as Theo continues.

"She can be quite intimidating when she wants to be. Rest sounds like a wonderful idea. For us both."
