The announcement that there would be no further attempts to make Death Scythes of the Weapons who attended the Academy was as much to demonstrate their devotion to the peace treaty with the Witches as it was to announce an end to the dangers that had plagued the world.
His role as Lord Death took up much of anything that might be called free time in any case, but he still had time to celebrate the small things. Little lives soon to welcome to the world. The graduation of friends to contributing members of this brave new world they lived in.
But Rin's reaction reminds him of how they have now both lost their fathers, and he feels something hot prickle at his eyes.
He misses him, and how all it took to hear his voice was a fingertip sliding across the cold pane of a mirror's reflective surface and an intonation, or a few gestures at empty air.]
So am I.
[For someone so thin, sometimes Kid can really hug tight.]
