[ gran spent the time pacing back and forth, unable to keep calm while they were working on eustace. he wanted to know when he would be coming out, every single little detail. he's annoyed at the fact that his presence doesn't have enough sway in this world, but he'll comply so he doesn't get kicked out.
but once he hears the state of how his friend was doing, he's relieved to hear that eustace is alright. it could have been worse, and the attacker got his just desserts for hurting his friend, so everything was right in the world. when allowed to finally see him, he just sighs in relief. telling him is one thing, seeing is another, and that is when gran finally lets himself relax. out of the danger zone.
guilt still festered within the captain, and he couldn't help but voice it. ]
Normally I'm not that careless... I'm sorry, Eustace. Should've done more.
