[It's hard for even him to say whether it's a habit of self-preservation or to remain a stable constant for others. Maybe it's a little bit of both. But smiles on Bruno's lips are almost always faint and fade quickly. He's never had much room in his life for overt displays of emotion that last. Happiness always seems to be the most fleeting for Bruno. He just never particularly tries to hold onto it. But every now and again, his smiles linger in his eyes. At the mention of changing the future, there's another flicker of a smile, but this time it holds in his eyes.]
So we are. [We. It's an important word. He looks back out the window, smile still in his eyes.] Now if only we could do it this time without risking our lives every couple of hours.
[Which shouldn't be that big of an ask. For most people, it probably wouldn't. But God only knows how long until Bruno and Giorno put themselves in that kind of danger again and most likely for the sake of the other. He's okay with that though in all honesty. Granted, he'd rather Giorno not put himself in harm's way for his sake, but he knows there would be no talking him out of it. It's what they do for one another without question. It's what they would do for any of the others if they were here. As it is, he's content to have this moment of peace if a moment is all it is to be. He can't even remember the last time things were this quiet.]
