[Once Gaius' own feelings are in a better place to tell Alfonse just how the actions of himself and the others gave the people of Werlyt the determination to fight back, against even something like the Final Days...]
I do seem to remember the first time I had you fire a simple pistol. The kickback is enough to startle anyone the first time, let alone a child that needed both hands to even hold it.
The lake may indeed be a nicer surprise in comparison.
[But that's a story for later. It's clear that Alfonse is already overwhelmed as it is, just from being back, and if nothing else then Gaius can keep from burdening him with even more worries. At least for right now. Right now, they can focus on other things.]
[No talk of Valens and the weapons. Not the end of days or the blasphemies they created. Something else, anything else.]
Though I can certainly think of several more enjoyable ways to wake up... And what of your familiar? I imagine that was less startling, but it took time to get used to for myself.
