[ Childe's uncertain how he feels about what's transpired, but he doesn't find himself overly hung up on the failed execution. Things went fairly, and the Pleroma clearly wanted to save Vaeka more than the Kenoma cared to stop them. Which... considering everything he's seen these last five days is wholly unsurprising. There's really only a handful of Kenoma that can be trusted not to turncoat, he's concluded, even if not all the rest have shown outward signs.
Childe's checking on the other Kenoma that were in the final battle at the jail, but ultimately he settles for approaching Howl, his expression mostly unreadable save for the slight concern in the furrow of his brow. For all the Kenoma he's been tagging as high-probability traitors, Howl would have been at the top... except these past five days have given the Fatui whiplash in concerns to the wizard and his loyalty performance.
Something was definitely wrong with him, but it wasn't something Childe could simply go ask about, either, and he isn't in even sure if anyone else has noticed (in which case, is it just him, then?).
Still, now that Vaeka's escaped, it seems as good a time as any to approach Howl, even if under the guide of checking on him physically since injured allies is always a problem that should be taken care of. ]
