He didn't want to react in public about Charon's fall or Nyx's. He didn't want to even speak with his family about or anyone else. There were memories and there was also so little that could be said. Everyone knew that there had been a chance and that death could never be avoided. And though Hypnos was the brother he was most close to, the one that he cherished and would do anything for, Charon was still his brother. Still family and vital. And, despite his endearing tininess, he was more sharp and feisty than people gave him credit for, possessing an understanding of the way things should be than most people combined.
His mother was, of course, always considered special. She birthed those most important and useful, gave the mortals gods did not go around and toy with them unnecessarily. She, too, understood everything relating to her children, a most clever and intelligent woman.
He would not ask or think of his brother or mother returning. Death could not do that, not even if it had been Hypnos. But should they return, Thanatos would be there for them if allowed. He knew, like many others, how being jerked around could affect someone, especially those who dealt with death for a living.
