As soon as he notices the way Sans is huddling, S-4 regrets his words. He shouldn't have been so doubtful. Sans obviously had a reason for acting the way he did, even if S-4 saw it as cruel. Surely there was more to it that S-4 wasn't seeing. He hasn't been in the world as long as Sans has. He obviously doesn't understand, that's all. With time, he'll see it wasn't imprisoning his brother or threatening punishment. Maybe that's just what caretakers have to do.
Sans-Serif's trust adds to that reassurance that S-4 must have it wrong, and so he smiles softly back, leaning against his brother slightly so their armbones clack together.
"You do understand. Thank you so much for being here, brother. Um, if you won't mind watching me try to read, then... then you can stay." He watches the other mourners. It doesn't look like Sans-Serif will have much time to decide before they're left alone.
