"Yeah." Wash had no doubts on that front; still, that didn't make the situation any better. He's not sure there's anything he can do to make things better; if there is, it isn't coming to him anytime soon. He'd just wanted some time to himself to sort things out, never mind that that hadn't exactly been going as planned either, and then Chief had arrived-

And Chief probably came here looking for some alone time too. Wash is probably the last person he wants to see.

Oh.

He gets to his feet. "I'll leave you alone."
