Exhaustion has always tinged Riz's features. So it is indeed hard for Adaine to tell whether the wear and tear Riz is showing is due to age, or too much work on too little sleep. She didn't think it was possible for Riz to look even more tired than he normally did, but clearly she was wrong.

She crawls inside, stepping into Riz's office and giving the room a cursory glance before turning her attention back to Riz. However, even once she turns to face him, her eyes keep flitting uneasily in Kalina's direction. She's hoping Riz will be insightful enough to pick up on her discomfort at having the Shadowcat around without her needing to say it aloud.

"Um. Hi. You, ah..." She doesn't know what to say, especially not with Kalina's ears listening.

"Looks like you beat me here."
