Of course he was furious with Vergil slamming down hard on those accusations. Of course there was a hint of that in his heart. But he just looked sad and ashamed.]
I know. I do not know what to expect in speaking with him. But I know what I want to say to him. Regardless, I will give him more time before I approach. There is much that I need to settle in my own heart before then.
[ Zulius catches that look. He's not got it in him to start that particular battle again, but he will give his friend's shoulder another solid, reassuring squeeze. He does understand. That was... a lot. ]
Honestly? That's probs for the best, Honey. Just tell him you wanna say your piece, he'll let you talk. He's good at the... silently standing there and hearing what people have to say thing. If you have stuff to say to him, he'll listen.
[ But he gets it, he nods. ]
Understandable, Sweetie. You take your time. Do it when you're ready.
