[Nero is not there, but Vergil can already imagine the protest at the notion that he goes overboard talking about Kyrie. He'd like be as red as tomato, but no less adamant that what he says is nothing short of the truth if not demanding to know who called her boring. But it would appear based upon that smile that while Kyrie is perhaps not as verbose, she is really not that much better when it comes to saccharine sentiments. Vergil sighs a little, resigned to his fate of having to listen to both of them with their endless praise for the other.]
[Still, it does not stop him from agreeing with a small nod even if he does not reflect back her smile.]
Better than he does at times. [Such insecurity is not one of Vergil's better qualities that Nero inherited. He looks away from Kyrie and towards their path ahead. In the absence of a snowstorm, civilization is visible in the direction they're walking.] He's grown into a fine young man. I am proud to call him my son.
[And grateful not only that he has the opportunity to do as much, but for Nero claiming him as his...dad in return. But Vergil keeps that portion of it to himself. It's not entirely his to speak and something that would likely be best heard from Nero than a claim made by Vergil. It's also a degree of vulnerability in his relationship with Nero that he's not willing to part with to her even knowing just how important Kyrie is to Nero.]
