[Kakyoin quickly turned around under the pretense of looking over the recipe Hierophant was holding the book open to, hiding what felt like a look of uncertainty he couldn't quite describe.]
[His own parents weren't here and probably never would be at this rate. And it wasn't as though he felt like he didn't belong with the others in this house, not anymore. But it...wasn't the same, was it? It wasn't wrong, but it didn't feel right.]
