The signal beeps in a steady rhythm like a heart monitor assuring all the patient is still alive. After vanishing a week ago, Takashi Shirogane's mark on the readouts gives no sign what's ahead.

It's another moment and another sip before Castor answers with the beginnings of a smile on her face. "I see why Shiro speaks highly of ye. Aye, you've the right of it, but it can be cold comfort when ye've got a friend that needs more than a smile an' a warm drink te get back on his feet."

She shrugs and busies herself with topping off Keith's drink, but there's something of a dark look on her face for a brief minute. "But if this is the best I can muster, then I'll muster it. Ye shouldn't be so hard on yourself in the meantime; speeches as such can get ye a long way with another person, I think."

Yeah, that slight bit of color on his face has nothing to do with the minuscule amount of alcohol in the drink. Before today, Shiro hadn't known; couldn't have known how much he'd failed them. How unprepared and just not ready he'd been. Two years on his own had changed that.

"Could say the same of speeches," he points out. Speeches can't cure physical maladies. They can inspire, certainly, but not heal. Yet she had a point; one he wasn't about to argue with.
