Edward blinked in the sunlight, aware of the cold without really feeling or being bothered by it. He felt heavier, not necessarily in body but in spirit. Death didn't only happen in Vas. Apparently, it happened everywhere else, including his home, and it had happened to his father even though he had secretly been in denial about the inventor's death for many years. Simply waiting outside the old man's bedroom door, waiting for him to wake up, had come to naught because he'd never wake up, ever again, and the people who died here... well... it was like that, too, wasn't it?

He stared up at a banner, telling him "Welcome Back". He wasn't sure how to feel about that. Already, he missed the Inventor again, but at the same time, Kim was still here, unless things had changed, and he really wanted to see her again. Even without his smooth skin and his perfect, untainted spirit, he was the person she had fallen in love with, and since Kim could do no wrong, she was the person he had fallen in love with, too, and always would be.
