"We both were? Huh." That's...actually kind of heartwarming to hear, even if it shouldn't be remotely surprising. Kotetsu's smile widens a little further, before he shrugs expansively once more.
"Well, I mean, we'd just had a pretty worrying time of things. Bunny got kidnapped, I almost died." Among other things. So many other things. Despite this, Kotetsu's tone remains very casual. Even genuinely casual. "I guess we were both hoping things would settle down a little after that. Especially with both of us retiring. But...hah." He gestures at the sky above them and the castle around them. "Not so much. I guess he thought I'd still be a little banged up from that fight. And trust me, having him go missing on me once before was one time too many."
"Besides. When there's trouble, we have to be the first one each of us thinks to call. That's just part of being a good team." He glances down at his wrist - it's still weird, not seeing his communicator there anymore.
