"...I know. I can imagine that's been hard for you."
It's something he was always cognizant of, even if there was nothing much to be done about it. For a young and lonely human like Teo it must have been especially hard to never have contact with anyone, and he hasn't had nearly as much time to become accustomed to it. Nor was it any sort of choice, for him...
But that's all the more reason to allow him to do this now, when it's- if not entirely confirmed safe, it at least can't do any more damage than has already been done.
Is it a good change, though? Or one he's okay with, as Teo rephrased...
"...I don't know. It means I will certainly be twice the fool if I do get burned again."
It's a certain display of trust, which he's used to holding tightly to his chest. Still, he's let himself open up at least a little to some of the wizards and the Sage back in his world... and now here, with Teo...
"...But it's you, so for the time being, I'm not worried."
