[even if it's minor, the disappoint is enough that he takes some damage from it. there's a flutter of unease for reasons he refuses to acknowledge and it's immediately replaced with something like determination.]
I do. It's another reason I've no intention of stopping you from proceeding in the way you think is best going forward.
[very glad i botched the english language and just called it disappoint. anyway. sometimes you're an idiot and you want to desperately try to be a better person because of a million mistakes and you've been trained into perfection so even the slightest amount of disappointment is alarming.
granted, usually emotionsharing isn't a thing and it's easy enough to hide it all.
there's something else then. similar to pride, similar to understanding and similar to something pleased.]
Very well then. [what else can he say to that? he wants harrow to continue.]
[I didn't even notice but I register his disappoint. Anyway, really all she wants from him is for him to make it easy and just acknowledge it first. Of all of the Avatars, he's the one who she just can't believe intends to hurt them.
But she has such a bad track record with this sort of thing, doesn't she?
She came here on Saturday night because she said she would, but she's not ready to talk about it yet. Not when she can't decide what to think about any of it, and she's so furious she wants to burn the whole thing down.]
That's really all I had for you. I'll talk to three people, as agreed.
[thanks for that. and also she's so valid. given the way he's reacting it's kind of clear that he wants to give her a better answer but he's holding back until harrow decides she's ready to actually ask the questions she wants to ask. he's not stupid. and they're similar. he's aware of the kind of mo she has.]
Alright then. [a pause.] My office is always open whenever you have more to discuss.

She hasn't made any decisions yet, so she doesn't react to that, besides the general mood in here being a little bit unusually cool.]
Your intentions are noted. I don't intend to be stopped.
