[Albert and Caesar]
I would like a word, when you have the time. In person.
[Katara]
Are you well?
[Richard]
There is something I wish to show you. When is a suitable time to meet?
[With those messages taken care of, Sigmund makes a quick round of the house to check that everything and everyone is well before he starts his morning routine. Unfortunately, this leads to a less than thrilling discovery. Aya's room is empty. Gone. He knows he should be pleased that she's not trapped here any longer... so why does he feel that twinge of loneliness and guilt? He'll knock on both Ed and Capell's doors before he goes, so that he can give them the news. ...Individually. Individually would probably be best.
Oh, and there was that matter he wanted to speak to Edward about, as well... But perhaps today isn't the best day.]

Then I require your assistance for the day.
Whatever you need, my lord- I'll do my best.
I need you to carry something.
What is it?
A sword. [Sigmund turns to leave the room, and motions for Edward to follow.]
Suddenly stricken by the very idea of it, Edward hastily moves to follow, keeping up with Sigmund's pace. Just what was going on?]
Although... now that he's looking at it, he just can't bring himself to say 'I'm too short to carry this across town comfortably.' He'll just... gesture at it and hope Edward gets the idea.]
Sigmund glances at his armor before answering, but decides that this is going to be all the weight he can manage for now. He's got a lot of building back up to do. Hopefully Edward hasn't noticed. He does grab Balmung and his shield, though. A sharp nod and his heading towards the door are Edward's signal that they're leaving.]
The barracks. I require space.
Will you be able to find your way back?
I should be able to, my lord...
[From his tone of voice, and as he doesn't look back, it's hard to tell whether he says that because he doesn't want the bother of looking everywhere for Edward later, or because he's honestly concerned, or perhaps even a mix of both.]
Not that this is anything particularly heroic, but some small progress is still progress. Which is a good thing. Right?]
...Then I'll stay, my lord, with your permission.
