[ Caliban's lips part for a second before he closes them and just lets that question sit before him because ultimately-...
Well, he wasn't mortal. He didn't know if the same feelings reflected back at the other was love. Not in the same sense. He'd *felt* like he'd loved Sabrina but conspired behind her back, and felt much grief when she'd passed but...was that proper love? In a proper way? ]

Of course.
[ He said simply, turning his head to brush his lips against the other cheek.]
