[Oh no, the Egyptian god drama is more messy than he figured despite understanding how messy gods (and god-like beings) can be. But now he's stuck with having to respond, and he supposes it's what he gets for entertaining Set's delusions.
It's clear Anubis would maybe not believe Set for a plethora of reasons, and D isn't sure if he should alter the perception by reassuring Set, or hurt Set by continuing with what would be appropriate.
He watches Set worry the end of his arm with pale fingers, unbothered. The sensation is there, surprisingly, and it doesn't hurt. The only difficulty is periodically having ghost arm sensations; trying to reach for something, feeling as if the weight of the rm is still there. No one, no man has ever stroked his arm with such fatherly affection; however, he has seen paternal love reflected to him through the better humans of the Frontier. He's seen it, what he's never had, enough to understand it's love. That's love.]
Why would he do such a thing?
[Next best tactic: see if Set will tell him more about what's happening so he doesn't have to answer yet. It's fine.]
SEEING THIS ICON AGAIN NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
