( force of habit. melinda likes to contribute her own brand of moral support. as reassurance, honest to god actual reassurance? it probably misses the mark every time. it's good that jemma doesn't need it, although it's nice to have.
she can't relate, and that's not a right-now thing. melinda always knew where she fit in a group, if at all. she's confident about that. )
You know, worrying about being perfect gets in the way of being good.
( just do, don't think. that's the operations mindset. may will never be able to do everything right, or stop making mistakes. she's accepted that. the last time she held herself to a standard she couldn't meet, that was bahrain, and it broke her heart. it took so long to come back from that. now she knows. )
