[It was a very good thing that Varian couldn't see her expression before she fixed it into a smile, and it was an extremely good thing that he didn't know those thoughts running around in her head. He'd argue that she was exactly where he needed her when he needed her- that he wasn't looking for some big damn hero to save him from getting hurt or killed. That she was a much-needed emotional rock for him, that he wouldn't have actually survived the fallout of any of those events if she hadn't been there.
But he doesn't know what's going on in her head, and so when she smiles, he buys it, he returns the smile. ]
