[He knows how difficult it's been for Victor. He feels as if he hasn't been able to help at all, either -- overcome with an anxiety about Victor having to hear his thoughts whenever he's near him, and then feeling guilty Victor has to hear the anxiety thoughts, too -- and he hasn't gone so far to avoid him, although he's considered it (likely when Victor could hear), but he also can't shake the feeling he isn't helping at all and only making it worse. So rather than worry about that, gotta focus on MAGIC.
Now that he's finally getting the hang of some of Sakura's powers, he's trying to do what he can to help this place -- figuring that's what the 'work together' message has to mean. It's leaving him feeling a little strange, not too dissimilar to how he felt after they turned back to normal after being vampires. That kind of strange, lingering feeling in the back of his head.
He doesn't feel confident with this magic AT ALL or even using the cards, and so mostly he's been doing small-scale stuff -- using Aqua to water dying plants, Gale to push away fog from the underground tunnels...
He spots Victor as he's heading back towards their house, and immediately overcome with worry seeing him so unhappy. He hurries over to meet him, looking as worried as his thoughts likely sound.]
