yakumo is noticeably depressed and miserable, and blade and garu try to cheer him up by acting like eiden but.. they miss eiden just as much. they all have a little cry together 🥺🥺

when olivine visits the city/market, both edmond and dante rush towards the crowd of people gathering around him, hoping it’s eiden attracting all the attention, and they’re very clearly disappointed when they find out it’s olivine instead.

rei, who’s also in the city at the time is also hopeful to see eiden again, but he hangs back and observes like he usually does. father calls him out for missing eiden, and he doesn’t disagree.

quincy leaves a note for eiden on his door every time he goes out on patrol, and topper leaves carvings on nearby trees. kuya notes quincy looks disappointed every time he comes home and has to remove the note from the door 🥺🥺🥺

and speaking of kuya, he’s being cranky and bitchy, because.. well, obvious reasons, so he makes fun of quincy for leaving notes. quincy points out he’s leaving essence barriers around the forest so he can automatically detect when eiden comes back, and kuya just gets even more pissed off at him. i wouldn’t be surprised if they got into another fight tbh

when aster and morvay hear that eiden’s coming back they invite everyone to the mansion for a huge welcome back party. they had each other to lean on in eiden’s absence, of course, but it’s very clear they missed him dearly.
