[Cyril's face sinks, even though he knows she can't see him just yet.
He wishes he knew the words to say to make this okay for her, but they completely fail him. He isn't good at love and relationships. He tries to start with several things and then rethinks, until finally...]
I don't know what to say, lethallan. You tell me what you want to do, and we'll do it. You want to go somewhere and scream? Or beat up a pillow? Or spar? Perhaps we should sneak onto that ship and deface the paintings? Or devour some comfort food? Get lost in the woods of the planet we are near?
[ The offers make her laugh, startled and happy, and she feels warm for it. He’s a little like a brother, she thinks; it’s never going to be easy for either of them but she’s glad she trusted him with this. ]
I’ve already been hideously drunk and called someone I shouldn’t, which I’m paying the price for now. Perhaps we could find some food and watch some of the ‘films’ they have here?
That I can do. I can go to the Iskaulit to get some of the better food and then meet you for a film? You can pick out which one you like from the network.
[And he does just that. He picks up his room a bit and goes to get food. That way, by the time she arrives he has everything set up for her to comfortably settle into some escapism.]

I'll do any or all of it with you, if you need.
