Kid was anxious. Anxious in a way he hadn't been in a long time. He knew the reason for it, just didn't want to admit it to himself.

The last island they visited was particularly dangerous, and at Killer's suggestion they decided to make a detour to drop you off somewhere safe. It was always the plan to come back and pick you up once they were done, but being away from you for that long still put Kid on edge. How long has it been? Over a month now, if he's not exaggerating like he usually does.

He was finally headed back to you with his crew. Killer kept the others away from him while he lamented in his own anxiety, not wanting to be bothered by anything until you were safely in his arms again.
