Hahaha I'd imagine that Baul has made his peace and fully accepted that he's never going to meet the Janitor again, so when he does see them again, he thinks they're simply a descendant of that human he has shared tender moments with, so he isn't outright judgmental of his grandson's human friend from college. Who's also a staff member and has not one lick of magic. But also, he's made it pretty clear to his family about his distaste for humans, so he has to keep his regular prickly composure of just, not verbally engaging with the Janitor.

But it obviously doesn't escape his family's eyes that his ears twitch every time the Janitor's voice can be heard nearby. And even bites a chuckle back into his throat when they say something snippy or funny.

Either way, something is clearly nagging at Baul, because the amount of similarities between his first human love and this Janitor just start cropping up and it bothers him. Are they mocking him? Is he a part of some cosmic joke that he's unaware of?

Yeah that Janitor isn't hiding anything, but they're also not outright saying anything because they just want to see how long it will take for Baul to connect the dots.

And when he does connect the dots, it's in the middle of a family dinner, probably something the Janitor says to Sebek and everything just clicked in Baul. Only then does he go catatonic, and he has to be helped to bed like he's aged another 500 years.

Janitor is having the time of their life. Baul is still so fun to mess with.

He will recover quicker than Sebek. Probably thirty minutes later and a talk must be had. Privately.

"So, does Sebek know that his grandpa's a hypocrite?"

"...I--"

"You sure taught him to be judgemental to humans, for someone that once so eagerly loved having my tongue in your mou--"

"MM-HM! ...you're right. I am, in fact, a hypocrite. A hypocrite that loved a human. A hypocrite that grew to resent humans, and even let those feelings taint those once soft memories he held so dear. Memories that regained their luster when his daughter nearly bit his head off for even suggesting her human husband wasn't worthy of her. And this hypocrite, standing before you with evidence of his mistakes still echoing in his bloodline, missed you all the same."

"...haha, glad to see you're living well enough to reflect on yourself like this. You have a beautiful family. Though, are you ever going to tell them that you once made out with human multiple ti--"

I think they would feel jealous of Eva and the family life and compete with her for Sparda's attention. Especially Baul. He would challenge Sparda to a duel on a daily basis.

Golemaale golemaale pirit koiro naa!

In this turbulent world, do not give in to love!

Piriti kaathaal-er aatha, laagle pawre chharbe na!

Love is like jackfruit-glue [the sticky juice], once it takes hold, it does not let one go!

Ek pirit-e Shib shawoshaan-baasi,

One such love sent Shiva to live in the cremation grounds,

[On account his grief over Sati's death]

Aarek pirit-e Gora holo Nawd-er Nimaai shonyaashi,

Another love [for Krishna] made Nadia's Gauranga-Nimai renounce the world, turning him a mendicant,

O re Geet-gobindo Pawddaboti, eraai kebol koyjona!

O Geet-Govinda['s writer Jayadeva] and his wife Padmavati, these are the select few [who tasted love and still lived happily].

Piriti-r reeti zaano na?! Korle pirit hawye biporeet,

Don't [you] know the rule of love?! You fall in love and then it all goes bad,

Pawre ghotbe jawntonna!

Later it will lead to pain!

O jaymon chite-gur-e pipre porle,

[Just] Like when an ant is stuck in molten jaggery,

Pipre lorti-sorti paarena!

[How] The ant cannot move even an inch [and dies]!

Golemaale golemaale pirit koiro naa!

In this turbulent world, do not give in to love!

Piritir jawg dumur-er phul,

The world of love is like the rare dumur flower [like hell freezing over],

Dumur-er phul jayno Alok-lawtaar mool,

A dumur flower, or is love the roots of the parasitic dodder plant,

Bhaab na jene korle pirit,

Without knowing the true rules, to fall in love still,

Jeeb-er pokhhe bhul.

That is a human folly.

O re ayk brahmon-er chhele,

O there was one brahmin's son,

O shey emni khitkele,

[He was] Bad-tempered by his very nature,

Pirit kore dhopa-r meye-r paa dhuye khele!

Falling in love, he washed the feet of a washerman's daughter and drank that water [simped, basically]!

[This is referring to Baru-Chandidas, one of the greatest poets of Bengali literature, who was a brahmin by birth, buddhist by faith, a devotee of Basuli-Vajreshwari, who married Rami, a muslim washerwoman]

Piriti-r jaati-r bichaar korle re bhaai,

To judge love by caste/religion, my brother,

Milbe naa chaand-er kawna!

You will be deprived of a piece of the moon itself!

Golemaale golemaale pirit koiro naa!
