With the plan interrupted to comfort X, Forte tries to find something to do with himself. He's pretty useless in this situation and it shows with how he uncomfortably leans against the door frame and searches for something to focus on besides X and Zero. His eyes land on some of the pictures of X's kids and he frowns. They aren't much more than little soldiers now, like the Hunters before them and the Robot Masters before that. The thought fills him with rage, but he hasn't lost any sleep over it.

How much more must it be bothering X if it keeps him from sleeping even when he tries to get some rest?
