It's why Roxy got the Lancelot spot fair and square while he'd been let in on a technicality (or rather, because no one was going to argue with Merlin on the decision when Eggsy had saved the world).
So while he'd been half expecting Roxy to cry when he'd offered her that physical support, he also isn't that surprised when she holds strong. Though Eggsy can't help but wonder if bottling it all up is going to do Roxy some serious harm someday. Maybe she waits until she's alone before she lets herself cry.
He moves his hand up to the back of her head, running his fingers through her hair, at least until she says those words.]
Shit! [He yanks away from her and rushes over to the stove, turning it off and then sliding on a glove so that he can grab the kettle's handle and pour out the steaming water into the two mugs.] All right, some steaming hot tea, it'll put you right as rain -- least that's what my mum always says.
