Zero, meanwhile, was more content to remain standing where he was, especially since they were in unfamiliar territory (to him) and he wanted to keep watch. Aigis seemed to be taking care of being comforting anyway, which was good since Zero was well aware of his own difficulties in doing the same. He'd leave that part to her.

In the meantime, he, too, stayed silent as he and Aigis both waited for Sechs to recover. Sechs gave him his answer - and that was all Zero needed to know to confirm his suspicions and understand what was going on. Nothing else needed to be said. As long as it didn't get worse...

(And the mission's success was not the only reason Zero was hoping for that, even though expressing it was something else he wasn't exactly good at.)
