[ He listens to Jakob prattling on, eyes going wider by the moment at everything he's saying. When he'd approached him, his expression had visibly brightened, because Jakob had ended up here! Not that it was a good thing at all, but he was here and that was the most important thing- that he'd found him at all. But then Jakob looked... like he didn't recognize him at all, and the more he went on, the more his own confusion increased.

Everything he was describing- well, aside from that whole grace and elegance defined thing and white hair.. (..his hair is light, though... it's close?)- was mostly him, so it had to be Jakob, right? He'd know he was a dragon, but... there's visible confusion (and admittedly, upset) in his eyes when he finishes, unsure of how to address it. In all the time he'd spent here, he'd admittedly missed his butler and maids, and his Nohrian siblings a lot- not that he has no love for his Hoshidan siblings, but even so... it was one thing to have found your family by birthright, but the family he had by association and growing up included his retainers and friends.

And to see the one he was closest to addressing him as a stranger was- to put it simply, a little heartbreaking. But at least he's been here long enough to know that this place tends to do things like this. He just never expected that he'd see someone he knew and would trust with his very life addressing him as an unknown. It does make the bite of other encounters with people from different times feel a little less daunting, but after a brief silence, he finally musters up the strength to shake his head 'no'. He doesn't know if he should say that he recognizes him, but he does add... ]

I haven't... but I could let her know you were looking for her if I find her.

[ He manages to compose himself enough, though the dejection is clear on his face even if he forces it down to a businesslike tone. He should investigate this Jakob a bit... ]

What- what is she called...? And who should I say was looking for her?
