Archer wipes his hands when he's done cutting the banana and sets about brewing the tea. It will take a few minutes to steep properly, so he makes her plate and sets it on the provided tray in the meantime. Once he's satisfied the tea is ready, he pours a cup and moves back to the side of the bed with her breakfast in tow.
It's entirely irrational, too, but seeing even a sliver of the bare skin of her back makes him want to withdraw. Not because he's repulsed - but rather because he isn't.
It's a feeling has to master and bring to heel as he offers the meal to her. He looks at her face instead, and there are...so many questions. And yet, he can't seem to settle on one. ]
