Stan glanced over to Claire, then to Lu, all the while a hint of sadness stayed plastered on his face. "This is where you and Lu talk to each other, Claire, without me interfering." The scientist proceeded to a different couch. "Snacks are on the table for all of you while you discuss adoption."

Harry guided Claire to the couch where the table with snacks was. "It's okay, Lucky! It's okay! You and Claire can have a chat."
