Jude
our sun's still shining, but it seems half the size
Jude is busy building an elaborate sand-commune on the beach. The return of warmer weather means those with fewer defenses against the cold - namely the children and the elderly - have returned en masse to the vibrant shores. Jude doesn't have many friends, but he is quite adept at keeping himself entertained, and what Torchline-born child doesn't have ample experience with the intricacies of sand castle building?
The call of his name makes him snap his head up, the familiarity of the tone slamming into him like a surprise wave that emotionally topples him within seconds of looking up and seeing his brother running across the sand. "Mun -" he chokes out, scrambling to stand up and run towards him, straight into his arms where he is swept up and held tight and close. He buries his head in Edmund's shoulder immediately, smaller arms wrapping around the older boy's neck as he instantly tears up. "You're back? You're really back?" he warbles. "I missed you more," he belatedly argues, weak at best but full of every inch of trembling heart that pounds gratefully in his chest.

Jude
our sun's still shining, but it seems half the size
The first thing he notices is that Edmund smells different. Like a familiar stranger. The brine and sun had been too strong the day his brother left for Jude to have noticed it then, but he can't ignore it now. It makes his chest hurt in a way he can't understand. But the older boy's arms are still the same, the way he cradles Jude just as familiar as the previous hundred times he's done it, so Jude shoves down that weird ache and focuses instead on the fact that Edmund is back.
Edmund had grown stronger when he'd aged, but clearly that has only continued, as he seems to have no problem sitting the two of them down in the sand with nary a wobble. With sand beneath his shins, Jude uses the new leverage to crawl even closer into his brother's embrace before he dares to rear his head back - not wanting to lose any inch of space in his desire to meet Edmund's eyes. "Where did you go? And - and are you gonna come back home?" Not just to Torchline, but to their house. Because if not, Jude may throw his first ever tantrum with the demand to move in with his older brother wherever he goes.

Jude
our sun's still shining, but it seems half the size
The Climb is a familiar destination in name alone, but Jude's brows furrow with clear concern - a concern that focuses on one thing only. "Were they nice to you?" His hands curl in Edmund's shirt thoughtlessly, keeping him close. "Did you learn a lot?" Presumably enough to have warranted returning home, but Jude has accompanied Edmund on so many adventures that it feels strange to have missed out on such a momentous one. He wants to know every detail, so he might commit it to memory enough to pretend he was there every step of the way.
Jude tries not to preen with excitement at the reassurances of Edmund remaining in Torchline, but it slips through anyway - especially at the mention of an apartment. "Can I come with you?" He perks up almost desperately at the idea. "Or, have a key?" Because he's old enough now to start being aware that younger brothers sort of cramp older brothers' style. "Home is...it kinda sucks," he admits in a hushed mumble, as if anyone else is around to hear it.
