Back home, eventually, Oz will say to Gilbert, I'm glad that I can finally fight at your side and Gil will have to accept it as an absolute. But Oz hasn't seen this yet, and all this time, Gil has meant to keep him ignorant to the future, but what he hasn't taken into account is that the future will come one way or the other, no matter what trouble he sees.

He isn't sure if he should be grateful or depressed by it.

So he just continues staring across the room at the wall instead, stress induced tears forming in his eyes.
