Cable came in, not thinking, and not stopping until he was in the room, already talking a little as he stepped in.
"--that was a good training, don't you think, Dom?" He had a P.A.D.D. with schematics and charts on it, and was looking down at it as he walked in. "I think this is working. With you here, the kids are working harder, and paying attention."
He grinned as he looked up at her. "Thank you a-" He stopped as he realized what he had done.
Domino stared at him in shock for a moment or two, closing her robe even more firmly than it had been before he came in. The motion was automatic, and she had to force herself to snap out of it. Her body relaxed, but it was more illusion than true relaxation.
Domino swore lightly under her breath, massaging her temples a little. "It's fine, Nate. You've seen the show anyway."
She waved her hand a bit, to indicate that it wasn't a big deal. "Now what did you want to talk about?" She didn't meet his eyes, instead letting them focus on his nose. She wasn't sure why she did that, either, but at this point, most things she did made no sense. Why should that change just because she was in a new place?

"Glad to see your manners are the same."

He backed up.
"Ah, I'll just go, then." His eyes flicked up to hers, crossing the mirror with a sheet on it as they went.
