Paladin will never not enjoy helping a lady down off their horse, which in some situations might make her a bit of a cad. Usually there is a bit of a linger afterward but not this time, they were just speaking about a person Adia lost who was very close to her, comfort is appropriate but not perhaps not overly close contact.

"A nice walk should help with that, or time, either or." Stepping away, Paladin reaches for the dangling reins to take Shadow in hand despite the fact that she is well aware that he will not bolt. "Would you like to meet me inside or come along for his care? Whichever you prefer is fine with me."
