At Shiva's comments, the researcher transfer his hand onto her should and gave them a kind but stern look that said 'Not now, alright? Later on, but not now.' Their was time enough to air their greviances, when they have grown worn out and stale with time and everyone has cooled off from That Battle, and he didn't want either of his friends to start to spiril downwards into negativity once more. He also gave a small headpat to Kirlia, as a way to show him that he didn't mind their actions in the battle (Not even Raphael's being nearly kissed to Faint!), and that all was forgiven between them and Nate, as far as he was concerned.

Well, 'not now' he says? Later on, huh?
If not now... When then? I don't want to...carry the thoughts around forever... free me from this, in any way...
My dear, calm yourself. You're making things worse.
So what??

When Ventus placed his hand onto her shoulder, Shiva did something that the Sociologist most likely never expected her to do: She took his hand, held hers onto his for a moment while looking back to him in an expression that was clearly exhausted, and took his hand off her shoulder in disappointment. Compassion, yes, but she feels bereaved.
