Summary
She sees him put his hand on the rifle’s handle which hangs on his right shoulder to prevent it from bouncing too much and give her a sidelong glance. She noticed him do it even earlier, turn in her direction and look for her in the crowd from afar, squinting against the daylight to focus on her. It’s his modus operandi: frame, focus and shoot. It is no coincidence that he is a skilled hunter, a sharpshooter. A couple of years and he will be a warrior of renowned fierceness even among the twelve clans."Just so you know," he says mulishly, "I would have lowered that lever with you."What he's saying is that he wouldn't let her do it alone. He wouldn’t let the burden of that impossible choice fall solely on her shoulders.(Clarke doesn't irradiate Mount Weather. She makes a different choice.)
