Thank you for acknowledging his suffering, Chloe. No one else ever seems to understand how hard it is..

It's at the second part that he hums though. "That's part of it."

Granted, talking a little too much about why he likes Cornelius is.. a little embarrassing. It's not like he wants to come across as some lovelorn fool, after all. So after a slight pause, he changes tracks just slightly, to--

"Have you seen that man who is always patrolling town in a greatcoat?" At least Little's choice of clothing - not even having ditched his clothes from back home - makes him a very recognizable figure to describe.. "He was one of the officers I had to serve. The first lieutenant. I've spent years serving him breakfast. Mending his clothes. Tending to so many small things for him."

Trust him, Chloe. You don't want the extensive list.

"It makes it rather uncomfortable to be stuck in the same place now, even with those roles and ranks having disappeared."
