[cramped indeed. but battler didn't really mind it, only he didn't want to be close to rudolf. good thing his father moved closer to ange, made it much easier to avoid his old man and scoot away from him.]

[...dammit, his old man was getting all emotional. battler did miss him, he really did, so he softened at rudolf's words.]

Same here. I'll put my family above all... [but he did trail off to the side.] ...And Beato, too. [he muttered that, but it was so overly cramped the two of them would be able to hear that oh so easily.]
