Glacius steps in before Carlisle can vocalize more of his self-deprecating thoughts, but his mind fills in the blanks well enough for him. There are other icy warriors like Glacius out there, but none within Hadriel; meanwhile, Carlisle knows there are others in the city who can do what he can but better, whether it's healing, glyphcrafting, and probably even dealing with alien beings in need of support. And while Glacius believes all he has done is use his abilities to try to help others, he hasn't seen the true extent of what he can do -- what he did to AJ, to Shadow, to Kate, to Chris.

His hands quake, but Glacius rests his own over them, shielding them from rising doubts as he encourages Carlisle to simply be himself. That'd be a much easier task if the clergyman had any confidence in himself at all, especially regarding his consistent feelings of inadequacy.

So he puts his confidence with someone he knows he can trust instead, taking in a deep breath and pressing his head against Glacius' once more, and with more effort this time. "I can think of many things you could ask for, but... I will try, Glacius. I promise you that."
