This is the pairing I always wanted and never knew it.
So awesome! Yes, that little 'Me too' moment from the show is what makes this believeable. We get so few peeks at Claire's humanity, but I can definitely buy that this would do it. I'll bet she was really bitchy in the way she told Tim to take a break, and she'll probably say something snide next time she sees Tim just to get her balance back, but in here Sean gets this little piece of her. And part of the reason he gets to see it is because he knows just how to respect it and then let it drop, because he's Sean and he's the best.
But also, it's Claire, so I love that his first response when he realises it's her is, Oh, God, it was Claire. Great. And to think that something is off, when really it's just Claire being kind.
Small note: "Somehow, you were the only he managed to hit." You left out 'one' or something.
No, Sean. She would not have done the same for you. But her letting you see her tears is as big for her as you throwing yourself in front of a bullet is for you, so you should feel good about that.
