Riley kisses Zetta's forehead again, this time murmuring to her,] Go to Ferran. I'll take care of it, alright?
Goddammit, [she mutters, but does as she's told. Fuck, she wishes Deacon could be here. This is such a fucking mess.
Riley, meanwhile, turns and goes to Nathan, though he maintains more than a healthy amount of space. He doesn't come to his side, but stays a boss' desk width away. They just met, he can't breach personal space. He sticks his hands in his pockets.] You don't have to. She's feeling overwhelmed, but she's right. We'd probably be going up there anyway. The Brotherhood's a threat to the Railroad, too, you know? So if we're going to be up there, we may as well help you at the same time. We can keep you in the loop. And if there's any help you can offer, I know we'd need it.
You aren't adding more pressure. This isn't an extra burden. It's an extra opportunity, for all of us. You know?
