Robin brushed her hair mechanically, taking no pleasure from it.
I was a fool for thinking, even for a few hours, that there could be something between us.
"Robin?"
She did not acknowledge him.
"Robin, I'm…sorry. What I did…it was out of line."
"There's no need for an apology. You simply reminded me that any feelings I had for you were inappropriate. It can be easy to forget that the only reason you are here with me is to protect humanity when I lose control. Thank you for the reminder."
"Robin…" he whispered.
She laid the brush aside prematurely and curled up, cold and lonely, with her back to him.
