Of course, they notice the shift in their father, the way it seems like he wants to say something or stifle down his fears. They don’t mention it, however, Bastien had always been one to say exactly what he wanted to say and Azrael wasn’t one to question it, to dive in deep. They know that the explanation is coming, they have an idea of the dread Bastien feels. And so they listen, their eyes trained on their father’s face even as he glances out around the room.
“Okay.” They begin, their brows still furrowed, their attention still focused intensely on their father, waiting for the ball to drop, waiting to understand just how terrible it would really be. The explanation is one that they partially expect and partially don’t expect, their lips twitching slightly as they try to think of what to say.
After a few moments, however, with their gaze connected, they understand the implications. “Just any house?” They ask quietly, unsure of what exactly to expect. To run in a house and hide and pretend that everything’s okay and that someone would hopefully find them when the sun rose again. “Can’t I… Just heal you and you’ll be okay?” This worries them, the idea of having to leave their father behind to save themself.
