That was… Very true… He didn’t have anyone like the people here, back in his world. Part of him thought that was best, because he knew what happened to people in his world now. Knew a little too much about what was going on there to not be afraid of it and the idea of it happening to people he cared about. But… Nida was right. “I… I guess that’s true.” He mumbled with a small sniff, eyes stinging lightly. One thing Nida would notice, that while the energy had at least calmed down somewhat around the boy, his eyes remained the same and there was still the faintest power radiating around him. It wouldn’t be going anywhere, not now.
But at least there wasn’t the sound of glass cracking or buildings creaking. He seemed to have calmed down somewhat with his attention so focused on the conversation and puzzling over the point being made. “If I could make sure it won’t happen, if people could stop something bad from happening…” He mumbled, more to himself than Nida. Seeming to be trying to come to a decision himself now. If he could trust people to stop the bad things from happening here, then maybe it would be okay…? Maybe… He could stay with them.
Drew his knees up closer to himself before glancing up at the reminder. A reminder of things that, now that he remembered them, he missed desperately. He missed helping to take care of the chocobos, he missed sitting quietly with the cat or watching Nida’s peacock cat strutting around. He definitely missed the cookies. “I’m sorry…” Finally escaped, his voice cracking slightly. He was sorry for making a mess on his first night back, and sorry for not considering that maybe he could trust people here to take care of things.
Not that it was easy to, considering how quickly the adults had given up in his world to the signal in the first place.
