Well, that's a funny thing to say. And kind of out of nowhere. Cluing into conversations simply by being there is one thing ( that also isn't out of the ordinary for him ), but this is... Well, he's not entirely sure. Silly, probably.

Is this about carpet patterns, or something...?

He thought that only the Trailblazers that recently came to visit Penacony knew what the Watchmaker's Legacy really was. Usually, he tried to keep he and Grandpa's secret under wraps for a variety of reasons. For one thing, it would have been REALLY difficult to explain that in a way, he WAS ( sort of ) his Grandpa; or at least the last remaining fragment of his existence. Sometimes, even HE had trouble grappling with the memories he grew up with and the memories of Grandpa's adventures. Not to mention, it would have caused more problems for Penacony and the Trailblazers.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤButㅤ—ㅤit seems as if the Head of the Oak Family had came to realize Penacony's greatest secret. Surely, nothing BAD could come of this, right ?

He cannot help but to study the young man before him. No matter how many times his sister has tried to explain to him just who this child happened to be, it was rather difficult to accept that this was the prized Watchmaker's Legacy. After all the stories and legends surrounding such a thing...how could it simply turn out to be just a child? One that seemed rather clueless on how best to help Penacoly at that. "...my sister has said a lot about you...It's a pleasure to finally get to meet face to face like this...Mikhail I believe your name is?"

The very adult decisions she made were critical to Belobog's victory against destructionㅤ—ㅤbut in times of SUFFERING like this, she wished she could do more.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤThe fact that there ARE injuries is worrisome. I know it's typical in the battlefield but stillㅤ—ㅤㅤ❜

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤIt was a bit difficult to gauge the situation now when she was alone like this. Had she lead the troops in the wrong direction ?

Really, she was grateful that the people of Belobog would never be the wiser on that front. Not that she thought on of them would mind, of course, but she really didn't want to have to explain it. Why someone they'd thought human...turned out not to be.

Still, she'd keep a gentle hold on her hand. Just in case- Pela was much younger than her. Even if she tried to play tough, she knew children had smaller pain tolerances.

"'m fine, sweetheart. And th' others look t' be okay. I bandaged up others that weren't b'fore I came t' check on ya."

From the former head of the Oak Family nearly throwing all of Penacony into the Order's dream to the Masked Fools planting nine hundred and ninety nine bombs onto the Nameless' new airship, Penacony had survived it all. Yet tragically, it came with the cost of an INNOCENT GIRL'S life.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤWas there anything that could have been done to avoid such a sorrow - filled ending ? Everybody in the Express was probably asking that questionㅤ—ㅤbut of all of them, Mister Caelus was probably stewing over his REGRETS the most.

❝ Is it too soon to do this yet ? ❞ ( from Misha, also hello ! )

Was   it   too   soon   to   do   this.

It   would   likely   be   to   soon   for   anyone   for   too   long.   "It   might   be,   but   Caelus   was   very   close   to   Firefly."   he   said   to   the   young   man.   "The   least   we   can   do   is   leave   a   memorial   for   her."   he   glanced   to   the   young   man   and   offered   a   small   smile.   "Its   really   for   him,   you   understand--it   is   a   step   in   the   grieving   process."   he   was   quiet   as   he   added   a   couple   new   records   to   the   Express's   music   system.

"Though   I   do   appreciate   your   concerns   and   interest."   he   said   as   he   turned   to   Misha.   "How   are   you   finding   the   Express,   are   you   enjoying   your   stay   ?"   he   inquired   with   a   quirk   of   his   lips.

"It   is   a   lot   when   you   first   get   on,   but   it   quickly   becomes---   home."

He could barely move. No matter how much he tried to force his tired and broken body to just simply move, nothing was listening to him. In the distance, he could somewhat make out the sound of Jeanne and Noe fighting something, something that he should be helping them with, and yet all he could do was lay there in the snow, watching as more of the white was dyed steadily red, a shuddering breath let out as the cold started to settle in. At least he'd managed to protect Misha...that was all that really mattered right...though he did wish that his brother would stop looking at him with such fear in his eyes. This was hardly the worst state Vanitas had found himself in...he'd survive...he had to. But even now, it was getting harder and harder to keep his eyes open, his usual bright eyes already seeming to have dulled into a misty sort of grey.
