[ Mako makes a face which is almost too childish to qualify as a wince. For all that she plays her cards close and for all that she tries to maintain a composed exterior, there are certain emotions that her features betray far too readily and sentiments that express themselves not only in her face but her entire body.
She doesn't like feeling that she's been obvious or clumsy with the conversation and the fact that Herc already can guess the problem (he's a father, and sometimes fathers know these kinds of things) makes her feel gawkish and inelegant. To overcompensate, she resets her shoulders and juts her chin a little in stubborn reassertion. ]
He wasn't always a soldier. [ He knows what it's like to want things and he speaks a different language than Mak and Herc and Chuck. That makes things difficult sometimes. ]
