But also, no matter how much she tries, sometimes she just doesn't try very hard to let him have space. Even when she demands space from him. Sometimes he misses the days before she developed her telepathy, when they had to all use words.
And hand signals. ]
So...do you know any? Before we go any further we should probably work something out.
[ Scott's not gonna just start spouting off this time. ]
Uh, some. But maybe something simpler? It sounds like you know stuff. [At least Keith will admit this is where someone else can stand in. Most of Keith's knowledge of hand motions is limited, partly because he only focused on what mattered to him.
And he's shown in the field (with Lance, poor Lance) that anything too involved just makes him lost.]
