1/2 yeah long comment is long

"Yeah... it's in the past, I hope," Gold mutters. For him, it's been less than a year, even counting the months spent in Ultern. It's hard to say it's in the past while under a truth effect.

"Oh, I guess you wouldn't, huh. Well, if he shows up and says who he is, smile and walk away! Or something like that," Gold laughs. Hearing about Guzma has him smiling too. "Oh, that kinda friend. Maybe he's kinda like Silver."

"Alright. Sorry. I knew you weren't talking about my dad but I sorta... Nevermind, let's not talk about family any more," Gold looks away, feeling guilty. Seems like dads are a sore spot for both of them, but in different ways.

Except not talking about family is hard when talking about cooking.

"Wow, she cooked for you so much you never learned to cook? Must've b-" And Gold slams his mouth shut, covering it with his hand. He could tell what was coming out wasn't nice. He'd been thinking something along the lines of how he would've liked to have that food, even if it was bad, but that was obviously the worst thing he could say. Gold shakes his head, still covering his mouth.

"Okay," Gold says, still just staring blankly. He hasn't seen Elio flustered like that before so it's a bit odd, and he doesn't know what to say about it, so he just moves on.

Gold is a bit disappointed by the lack of reaction to Umbar, but whatever.

"Yeah, makes sense," Gold says, not thinking about that enough to realize Elio just implied he's been in two worlds before arriving in Ultern. Umbar notices, but doesn't say anything, just makes a mental note.
