I wonder if Commission Five ever turned on the TV in his hotel room and watched his siblings as kids fight people knowing full well he can't go talk to them can't go save them can't go protect them because Five may be in the right time period but he is still so far out of reach
I wonder if Commission Five ever sat in his hotel room right next to the TV and watched one of Allison's movies. I wonder if he'd pause the movie and pretend to talk to her then resume it and pretend she was answering.
I wonder if Commission Five ever bought magazines with Allison and Claire in them and held onto those so damn tight cause that's the closest he could get to hugging his sister and niece.
I wonder if Commission Five ever bought an umbrella academy comic book and felt sick over how fake it was. How it glossed over his siblings pain. He held onto it anyway because it was the closest thing he had to their pictures
I wonder if Commission Five ever saw his teenage self on the news (like after the bank mission) and felt pure unbridled hatred for the arrogant teenager he used to be
I wonder how much it hurt Five to have resources with his siblings readily available unlike in the apocalypse, when Five knew it didn't matter because no lunch box with his siblings faces can ever replace the real thing
