[And this time, Kimblee doesn't say anything that might call him back.
He watches Archer leave in silence, though it's less to ensure that he's really leaving and more to allow himself some time to calm himself down. He keeps his gaze forward, though the look in his eyes is oddly unfocused; he isn't seeing anything that's in front of him, keeping most of his attention turned inward, on releasing the tension that's been gripping his body, on deepening his breathing and slowing his pulse down from the horrendous jackhammer pace that he's just now calm enough to notice. The cooldown period is thankfully brief; it isn't terribly long afterwards that he turns to move back inside, his nerves suitably relaxed for now.]
