[He tips his chin toward the closet where they are presumably stored, then, with the door closed and both inside, he snaps his fingers.]
Silent.
[That's better. He doesn't expect anyone to secretly be listening in, but he's always been a private person. Then he smiles again, warmly, and leans forward a little in his seat. Evidently he's forgotten all about the state his makeup is in.
Law is too far away to hug which is probably good or he'd devolve into just clinging to him and crying again. He's not over this and he's still half-wondering if it's all going to go away the next time he blinks.]
I - don't know where to start. Um. I read a little about Dressrosa though, yeah. The official version, of course, has the Marines come in and put everything to order after you and the... Straw Hat Pirates? Ran rampant through the country. But I figured, since Doflamingo and the others ended up in prison, after he'd apparently been king... I figured that was you. Wasn't it?
[Hard to say exactly how he feels about all that and ultimately the true story will help him decide. He's glad to have his brother behind bars finally, that's not even in question - he was long overdue for it. But it would have been horrendously dangerous for Law, and - well, frankly, Law is here and dead, so it seems dangerous things were a part of his life. Who and what has he really become?]
