[ The capriciously cute way Rau has given him the runaround about handholding only proves that point. Gil wastes no time taking hold of Rau's hand, giving it a quick squeeze as he does so.
Rau can have his mask, if he really needs it. A pocket is a decent place for it. Much better than Rau putting it back on as though it were a natural part of getting redressed.
With all that settled, Gil leads them towards the door. He's walked in and out of this office hundreds of times when he was alive, but this might well be the last time. It's a strange feeling, but he doesn't allow himself to linger on it. ]
