[There's not much else to say. Even that is less an acknowledgement that Skulduggery understands what Kratos is trying to say, and more a way for Kratos to learn the word 'dead'.
He doesn't need to ask why Kratos went back to a regime he knew was terrible. Skulduggery's felt that hopelessness himself. He generally makes it a point not to judge others for bad decisions he also made -- one of the many reasons he still associates with China despite his better judgement. The year after Kratos found out Lloyd was still alive must have been an incredibly interesting one, especially since it apparently ended in Mithos's death. More questions to add to the growing list.]
Other. His other father. His adoptive father, if you want to get technical. [Skulduggery exhales slowly and looks up into the sky.] When you've learned more English, remind me to tell you about the time I did something similar.
[He is fully expecting that question, if it's even understood in the first place, to fall through the cracks sometime before Kratos masters the language.]
