[Zero had seen that look before. It was one he had become quite familiar with, actually. Suspicion, fear and apprehension reflected in both human and reploid eyes as they stared at him from the corner of his vision, defensiveness in their tone and resentment in their words when they spoke - some hushed, and some outright accusations. He'd taken them all in varying degrees over the centuries.

Ishimaru had not reached outright contempt, of course, but he was certainly uneasy. That was... understandable. Zero had failed to protect him. He couldn't fault a civilian for feeling some measure of disillusionment.

Still, there was a touch of disappointment in his face. Just a touch. A barely noticeable tint for anyone unfamiliar to Zero's range of expressiveness.]

I see. Well, don't push yourself.
