[Felix doesn't seem particularly perturbed by it, though.]
The last thing I remember is retaking Fhirdiad. We were preparing to march to Derdriu in the morning. But I've heard what happens afterward from Claude, and from you.
[Another slight bit of tension leaves Felix's shoulders when Sylvain sits down. He's staying put. He's going to let Felix come and retrieve him. Good.
When Sylvain mentions Claude's message, Felix looks a little relieved at first, and then his brow furrows warily. He knows Claude wouldn't just spill everything, but it's nerve-wracking not to know what he did spill.]
Which 'stuff' did he explain?
[For once, Felix is the one looking back down at the screen, even as he's walking into the Pokecenter. He'll have to switch out his team and then warp to Saffron...and wait for Dimitri before he gets on the train, he supposes. Much as he'd rather not wait for anything, he also doesn't want Dimitri to spend six hours on a train alone. Who knows what might happen?
But for the moment he just sits down in one of the nearby chairs. Just for a few minutes. Without realizing he's doing it, he curls his left hand into a loose fist on his lap, below the level of the screen.]
...I know you don't. There's no need to apologize. You've been gone for two months.
[There's not even a half-second of hesitation to figure out how long it's been. Felix knows exactly how long it's been.
When he speaks again, it's quieter, almost a murmur.]

If I'd known how, I would have followed you.
