[That...took a turn he wasn't expecting. And while he keeps his gaze on her for a long few moments, so too does he look to his Pokémon. He doesn't need to be gawking at her when she just shared with him something like that. It's weird, hearing something like that, that her home is apparently destroyed, that these wyverns she seemed fond of were all dead...
It doesn't quite make him feel guilty over his own desires to destroy his home—or what should be his home, but it does make him feel odd. It does make them an interesting foil. Lucina coming from a world destroyed, while Guzma comes from a world he wants to destroy. Less so wiping everything out, but enough to level it all, start it all over...
He's at a loss for what to say, and so for a good few moments he's just quiet. He's never been good at words for comfort, and he's not even sure if that's what she wants? It's not like he was aiming to dig this sort of sensitive info out of her with his question, but he sees now how it should have been obvious territory that he was trekking through.
One thing in particular does settle into his chest, and he can't fight the impulse and need to know:]
...Does that include you?
[A little blunt, but that's just how Guzma is. He knows this place is a little weird with its porting shit, so he's left wondering how she knows this, because as far as he knows dead people aren't...can't?? be here...????
