Grateful that Shane had taken the proferred hand (and relieved that it had seemed like the right choice; interpersonal relationships outside of his duties were definitely a weak point in Ignis's skillset), Ignis gave it a small, reassuring squeeze, and breathed out through his nose in what could have been considered a wry laugh.
"From what you've told me about what happened at Wolf Den," he noted dryly, "I should imagine he'd be wanting to tread lightly with any information regarding it if he's resposible." And then there seemed to be a sort of shift, a small outpouring of sympathy, as he reminded himself that Shane wasn't exactly built for the intrigue side of politics.
But Ignis was.
"It's a good thing that Walsh appears to have a convinction for defending his choices, then," he noted. "And that this Senator appears to have enough dirt on him to keep you in the clear..."
But he could certainly see why that suddenly felt like a very thin line to walk.
