[HIS 20 VIX CHECK MEANS HE ALSO FUCKING SEES THAT THEIR REAL VAX IS GONE and he's not only feeling the absolute crushing weight of misery, but also the additional guilt that comes along with failing to realize?? That he had??? Grabbed the wrong person????? HELLO.
He just wipes away at his tears, moving over to where Vin is and reaching out very, very hesitantly to touch her arm.]
I... --I'm sorry, I didn't...
[...Haha. Well.
Apologizing won't really help, huh? Just like it won't bring back the dead. The humans he knew in his earliest forge-days, or the genius swordsman who once wielded him, eyes bright and hands sure. Yasusada, who's died here, and there, and almost died before, and continues to be there existing right at the brink of death, all because he wants to keep his partner safe. Terrible.
He can barely even feel relief that Ruby is okay, even though he'll nod her way, shaky and hesitant, suddenly full of self-doubt and misery. He'll give a vague attempt at looking for sweet Aymeric but with his depressos, he only does a 3 at best.]
