Kiss better!" chimes from overhead and Helix stiffens. Kiss better? Was that a prod at his skill level? He glared up at the thing wanting nothing more than to rip it from the sky and tear it apart. He was nervous and inexperienced (aside from one other person of course, but even then they were fumbling through) the bot could cut him some slack!
He gives a shy glance to Inara and swallows raggedly. There was a silent look of 'what should we do?']
