[He'll tell Wolfwood about Zazie later, and the plan they're putting together. Maybe. Maybe it won't matter. If they aren't together, then there's no reason to feel bad that he'll be staying behind, right? Perhaps it'll simply make the choice that much easier.
But those are thoughts for another time. Right now, he's far too consumed with holding back the grief building within him. Really, truthfully, he doesn't want to go. He worries that if he leaves, everything will fall apart. Funny how that matters now, when he's already turned tail so many times.]
Mind if I grab a few things?
[He's trying so hard not to choke back the tears. Wolfwood deserves honesty. And yet in that same vein, he worries that if he breaks down, it'll manipulate Wolfwood into changing his mind. It doesn't feel like there's a right answer here.

[Which... god, he's going to have to talk to Livio about this too. He isn't ready for that either. Nor is he ready to say goodbye to Angelina, who he just got back. Better to start in on that while he waits for permission. He ambles over to her and holds out a hand, then scritches behind her ear.]
