The shot at his lack of tact seemed to fly right over Alister's head, but Mira latched on, having noticed the entire spectrum of emotions that ran through the senior pilot. She wanted to apologize on her brother's behalf, but Beth evacuated far too quickly for that to happen. Once Alister walked away, Mira lightly groaned and leaned back on her bench. "Why would he do that? Alister, you can be a real asshole sometimes..."<br/><br/>Nevertheless, she remained where she was, as she really didn't have the guts to chase after Beth and say anything on her brother's behalf. She preferred to just leave the subject alone and hope that it would patch itself up.<br/><br/>...............................<br/><br/>Alister tilted his head slightly at the reaction, though he wasn't expecting the kind of reaction that he got out of her. In all honesty, Alister respected that she was trying to move on with her life after something painful happened, and he thought that she would feel a sense of normalcy in his words, such was obviously not the case. Then again, Alister had never really been all that close to anybody, so he never knew the kind of pain that came with loosing somebody so close before. Because of that, her reaction confused him more then anything, and while the silver haired man decided to leave his sister alone, he decided to turn in for the day.<br/><br/>There was nothing else that really interested him here anyway.
