[ sandalphon can tell when he's being stared at, and it only makes him sigh lightly. sure corrin, sure. ogle all you want, he doesn't truly mind it. but what does catch his attention is the story he tells. he's aware of corrin's story, and how much he's missed out on. the angel supposes that knowing family was awaiting outside of confinement made the experience easier to bear.

he knows he shouldn't be jealous of corrin's experience. he knows, and yet, he knows the stab of jealousy when he feels it. he doesn't want to think on it now, especially because corrin genuinely does miss his family. it was understandable. but he does want to do better by him about that. but where to start, is the question. ]

There's nothing wrong in missing your family. You deserve to want to be with them, given how much time was stolen from you. [ he deserved that, at least.

but his attention was now dragged to the kimono, and he smiles at how he looks. it was stunning, to say the least. sandalphon appreciated the fact that he was good looking enough to wear this kind of kimono, and he's glad corrin appreciated it just as much as he did. ]

I'm pleased for you to share your culture with me, as well. I may not know all the ins and outs, but as long as you lead the way, I'll be content. [ he smiles. ] I do want to try more, if you don't mind.
