Not when he's just found out something he hadn't expected. It helps him, actually. It helps him understand why Noh had said he was asking a lot when he really wasn't.
Garrus takes Noh's hand and holds it, thumb running over its back as he looks into those sharp green eyes. He's not the only one afraid. Garrus doesn't want to be hurt, Noh doesn't want to lose... what, exactly? Freedom is Garrus' best guess. Individuality. Leaning in, Garrus presses a mandible to Noh-Varr's cheek before straightening back up and releasing his hold on Noh's hand.]
Tonight, then. There's a place that does a decent dextro noodle dish as well as a bunch of other noodle dishes I'm gonna assume are fine, if that works.
[They have time to figure things out. There's no rush. Or maybe they don't have time and they'll vanish the next day, but that just validates the lack of a need of rush. What time they have, they have.]
