"Oh... well, alright," Glacius responds, fighting to keep the disappointment out of his voice. "There's no cause to push yourself too much in one day. I just... want you to be comfortable."

He'd been hoping so strongly that this first step that Carlisle had taken on his own would be the gateway to further adventures together, but that still doesn't seem to be the case... and he's never been the sort of creature to put his own wants before the needs of others. If they can't spend time together out trying new things, then they at least have good old stand-byes to resort to. Glacius doesn't want Carlisle to feel like any of that is second-rate, because even though the novelty of all these changes are enjoyable, the stability and comfort of their routines is something he wouldn't trade for anything. "I'll tell you what. I've been out here for awhile... I'll make my way to the stores, and then we can go back together, so that you don't have to worry about any of this or wear yourself out further."
