You're probably right, he's not... an emotionally open guy. [That is about the simplest way to put it. He dusts himself off, sniffling a little as he tries to shake off lingering tears.]

I think, I will stay with you. He doesn't want to see me right now.

[Caduceus opens his mouth, shuts it. There's a few things he could say, but he too has siblings, those he's fought with plenty of times. Over stupid things, over serious things. Easy to think about Colton's indifference, so often stone-faced, pretending he's strong even when he might not be. Calliope's confidence in the face of despair. Clarabelle's stubborn bluster, thinking she knows best despite still being such a child. It's hard to know what the best call or the best advice might be.

He exhales softly, giving Leonardo's arm a pat.]

Then give him space. We can take the train back to Gram, maybe it'll soothe your mood some.

[He's found the gentle glide of the train weirdly comforting when he rides it. Nice scenery, good distraction. Better than flying back when they're already exhausted, anyway.]

I hope so. [He rubs at his eyes for a moment, trying to abate the weight that wants to settle down over him. Leonardo doesn't know why his twin is acting like this. He wishes he had a simple answer.

But right now, that isn't within his grasp.

He walks over, closing the distance between them with a few steps.]

The train is always nice to ride on. Be a lot more calming than anything else that's happened today.

We could all use a little calm.

[Especially today, after everything. Once Leonardo reaches him, Caduceus turns, and together they can make their way to the station. There's still plenty to deal with, but... well. They're all due for a rest. Everything else can wait for tomorrow.]
