Such a dark end for the weapon that had been used to try and fight the darkness, only to be rescued and brought back into the light. It wasn't a happy ending, not really, but there was something in Charles that felt settled in knowing that the Squire in fact did meet justice in the end for his crimes. It wasn't just fear, fear Charles could understand, he had seen so many times in the children he had brought into the school, but the choices made from it...
Though even that was ironic to be angered about, given that he had forgiven someone of their choices no matter how terrible they had gotten.
"Pressured... no." Charles chose his words carefully, realizing that Aurus was, in his way, truly apologetic for what he had been saying. He didn't want the other to feel that he couldn't tease, even if it was to his embarrassment. "If I was pressured, I wouldn't be waiting to see what happens when we are done here tonight."
With that, he picked up his pace in the direction they were heading, leaving that with Aurus as some serious food for thought. It was true; he was eager to see how the night concluded, but he had a feeling in the moment things might be very... different, outside of here where he functioned normally again.
