 Yeahhh, Mr White! Yeah science!
He turned to look at her. “Don’t apologise. There’s no need to apologise.” He didn’t mind her offloading onto him. He hoped that she would when she was distressed, but he knew he couldn’t say or do anything to make her feel better in this particular situation. “If it was an elf, he must have known what he was doing. Elves aren’t stupid – he must have realised that this may cause a backlash… maybe this will be good for the elves – they can have their own 'mini' revolution and free themselves from oppression… like the French… or Scottish.” He was waffling but he didn’t know how to make Egypt feel better. He hated to feel powerless to help her. If he could, he would take away all her negative emotions and carry them on his own shoulders.
“Stop apologising, please love.” He said again as she apologised yet again. It was time he should get back to work and speak to Nicoli about this. "Do you want to speak to my head of department about this or shall I?" he asked her - she may feel happier talking to someone more senior than Nate and he wouldn't blame her. He took her by the hand and led her towards the lifts.
