[Oh, God, this again... though admittedly having an Annie-shadow is better than every other option, but still--]

[Really, Mitchell, she has no one else on board stop making her feel invisible.]

[humanistic]

[IMMEDIATELY:] No.

Look, Annie-- I'm-- [God, why is this so hard, why does it feel like he's pushing her away--well, easy answer there would be because he is, but then why the hell is it so painful to do, why does he feel like he's hurting her when all he wants is to protect her--] I don't want you wasting your time on me. That's all.

[...and he waits a few seconds to see if she'll just pop back, but she doesn't--]
