He knew it. The way her voice rose slightly and the way it shook as she spoke told him that she was obviously bothered. Cyrus sighed. How was he to help her? He knew if he tried to explain it, she would have a hard time understanding her own feelings. Feelings she was never programmed to feel. But it was worth a try. He needed her and she needed him.

"Look, Canon. Slow down. Your talking a bit too fast. Just breathe." Cyrus' gentle gaze strained to grant some comfort to the confused, Operator. "There's nothing wrong with you, your just nervous. That's all. Its a normal feeling when someone is about to do something big like this. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about but hear me out. Look. I'm like this too."

It was true. Cyrus' whole body felt like it was shaking through out the large machine. Shaking with anxiety, excitement and a billion of other feelings. "Hey Canon, I've got an order for you. We aren't going to arrive at the training area for quite some time yet and we are awfully early according to our schedule. I've got something for you to do. If your feeling stressed out or nervous about anything, just look at the sky. Then find a cloud that looks like an animal. That will help you to chill. It just takes your mind off of things. It helps me a lot. Try it."

Anything to help her. He needed her for this. And as ridiculous as his request might've sounded to Canon that moment, he needed to teacher her how to deal with herself. How to deal with everyday emotions that bombarded humans every day. Step by step. Little by little.
