"Gee pops, I sure did miss you."
Sebastian opens his mouth to say something - likely a retort or a scolding, maybe even a flirtation (…no, not a flirtation) - but nothing falls past. He notes the sarcasm, and it hits him like a wall. He wonders if he’ll ever be able to climb it and reach Laito. “I missed you too, kiddo. I hope you’ve been a good boy while you were off… doing… whatever.” The playful lilt of his tone is difficult to keep, but he manages it.
