Sans-Serif isn't about to be satisfied without a proper answer, but even his curiosity can usually take a backseat to his brother's comfort - especially when it feels like this is the longest time they've spent together since the funeral.
He can feel S-4's sigh in his own ribcage, sounding almost disheartened, and maybe his brother really doesn't care what a mother is or what it means to have one. Maybe he's okay just having Sans-Serif. The older experiment feels a little guilty for wondering, then. He can't help the way his mind races ahead, sometimes...but neither does he want to leave his brother behind.
"...we don't have to talk about mothers if you don't want to. we could read another book instead!" Maybe one that's a little less scary before the promised happy ending. "you did a really good job reading that one. you even read it really fast!" A mercy he appreciates greatly.
