After the emotional episode, they all needed to decompress before rejoining the others, repositioning so that Carl and Klaire could cuddle into Kyubi while she cradled them both in her tails.
"Carl, you better make sure you come home tomorrow. If things get messy, I don't want you thinking "well at least Klaire still has a love and Kyubi still has an immortal family and a safe place to live with them", understand?"
"Yes, I won't throw away my life, not when I have all the tools I need to get away. I'll be maintaining a brief glimpse into the future. The other me will be ready to blind at the tip of a hat and I'll have Tiamutael ready to get us out."
"Speaking of, I love you both, but I love our babies as well and they are probably waiting for dinner..." Kyubi summarised the situation almost perfectly, but for the one one slightly more likely estimation that Klaire followed with.
"That, or Omedra couldn't wait and is having her little sister cook for everyone."
