Even to Theo, those final moments atop of the Crystal Tower on the First were painful. Seeing the other so resigned to the inevitable, even while clutching onto the rare hope that these memories would take, had the Viera feeling torn. He felt as though he were missing something important, not that he could tell how the other was feeling about it in return. G'raha was the one to hide his face once more, under hood and glamor. He chose to be the Crystal Exarch in those moments and Theo had little choice but to accept it.
It would be different this time, he told himself, as the Viera approached the young man stretching. Personally, Theo had thought that there would be a dramatic 'who disturbs my slumber' line being thrown at him. Instead there is a tone of delight. Surprise. It was fair, truthfully, since G'raha likely thought Theo would be one of the last persons who might fetch him out of want to see him again. Perhaps the Viera would have come, before all of the trials and tribulations he had face, out of necessity.
His ear flicks as he drew near, looking up and waited for the other to join him. If possible, considering Theo hardly knew how stiff one must feel after stasis. His lip quirks in response - downright expressive for what this G'raha Tia would have known... "
Would you have been able to tell the passage of time based on my appearance alone?" A tease, since Viera age so differently than other Spoken races. "It has not been overly long, G'raha Tia."
