It isn't until he shushes her, tries to soothe her, that she realizes just how close to a panic she was allowing herself to get. With a wordless nod she pulls back, lets go of him to give him the space it will require to move and sit without tripping over each other.
But she closes the door before she steps inside more, closes it and locks the world out. Locks them in together, and in her effort to do as she said she wants to she reaches a hand out to take his, to let him take her wherever he thinks they need to go.
It's more submissive than he's ever seen her, but they've both been through more than their fair share of emotional ups and downs in the last 24 hours. This is 2B shaken, demoralized, and afraid. The side of her he doesn't see because she's able to pull it back together by the time he's reactivated, briefed on their mission, and sent back to her.
