He's trying. He's trying to calm down but it's hard. It's like everything just caved in on him at once, even if it had been a YEAR since it happened. It was like Klaus was playing a mean joke on him, except that the fact he was clearly a ghost made that impossible.
He ran his hands through his hair, tugging a bit and... paused, looking up at Klaus as he tried to tell him what happened.
He sat up a bit, his hands dropping down to his belly and frowning, arms sliding around to tighten a bit there, as if to hold back anything that might want out. He could still feel them there. Different now, but still there.
"I-I'm sorry." he said, to that. To all of that. To having him retell it. To having died on him. to haunting him now. All of it. He pressed his hands into his head a bit, elbows on his knees, and trying to compress it all into his brain.
"I just... I don't remember any of it. I don't--I can't believe I don't remember this. Dad always wanted me to summon something more. I guess he got his wish. I just... Oh god. I..." He tried for another breath, trying to stay calm. Klaus was trying, so he would try too. "I'm sorry..."
