*The three step out of the room and Darnell starts to follow Khal but after a moment, he just...slows to a stop and shifts to lean back on the wall, staring at the ceiling.*

Lopen: *has been right there with him the whole time, and he'll stop by Darnell, resting a hand on his shoulder*

Khal: *realizes they stopped and he stops too, returning* ...Are you all right, sir?

Darnell: I-I, ah...y-yes...yes, I'm sorry. *runs a hand down his face and pushes off the wall, intending to continue following, pushing his own reactions down, now's not the time*

Lopen: *notes the room across the hall is empty.* Give us a moment, will you Captain?

Khal: *nods* Of course.

Lopen: *will catch Darnell by the elbow and lead him into the room, closing the door* Let yourself react, Darnell. It’s been a lot, take a moment for yourself.
