Mithos... doesn't know what to say, doesn't know what to think. Lloyd's exasperated, like after every other revelation tonight what's one more, and Mithos understands that, feels somewhat the same (he hasn't even really finished processing his father's identity, to be honest!), but also...
He knows, that like, technically. Lloyd isn't human? Certainly not like any of the humans Mithos knows from this Aselia, and for as long as Lloyd has been his driver, Mithos definitely hasn't found a reason to hate him, but still.
Lloyd... a human... and also his brother...
Mithos absolutely cannot cope with that, tonight.
Not on top of everything else. Not for another second.
"I," Mithos says, and any further words fail him.
He closes the connection between himself and Lloyd, pulling himself out of Lloyd's dreamspace. A bitter part of him is well aware that he's leaving, like a coward, like their father, but Mithos tells himself he won't run away from this forever so it's fine he just needs a minute or a hundred away from Lloyd so he can breathe.
He blinks awake, startled, in the chair he curled up in. It's... storming outside, rain and thunder, not too disimilar from what the dreamspace looked like before Mithos left. That's... probably not a coincidence, is it?
Mithos puts his head in his hands and focuses on breathing, rather than screaming, like he wants to. It's fine. The storm will calm down when he does. It's fine.
(He can decide how the hell he feels about... All This... later.)
