[A part of him is detached, because a lot of this does not surprise him. Not Grandfather wanting his blood's bodies to possess, not exacting revenge over it, not the deadly, brutal ways in which his family ... not resolves matters among them, because they don't get any resolution, but acts on their anger.]
[Another part of him? Does react. He's angry about it. Angry because of his Grandfather, angry because of his aunt, angry because of his Mother. Betrayed. He does understand the implication of the change in Mother, though he isn't sure if, had it not happened, it would have been better. For him - it would probably be better for Mother, and he's irritated at himself for feeling protective over her. Again. He is supposed to be done, with that.]
[His fist clenches, and then he forces himself to look back up, at Father. Forces his voice to be even.]
Tea?
[He's offering to make it, yes. He needs... a little time to calm down, because he can do nothing about any of this, so the rage won't help at all. And it's possible that Father can use it... as much as Damian himself can.]
