Cain definitely snorts at Saturday's first remark. But he otherwise listens with an air of understanding sympathy and perfect commiseration. He knows when somebody needs to let something out, and he's hardly about to stop her. She looks rather young and ill-equipped to be facing against these threats, one she seems to have unwittingly stumbled into by chance.
He doesn't see a little bit of himself in that at all. Absolutely not.
He doesn't talk about it either. He'll complain about Nurgle stench with the troopers and make fun of Khornate bezerker tactics all day, but it's different - not to mention dangerous - to discuss its personal touch.
"Certainly. It's a..." Terrifying, Cain wants to say, but he settles on another word. "...troubling situation when it calls to you by name, and you realise that they've been watching this entire time..." He instinctively makes the sign of the aquila with his hand, to ward off the cold chill of dread that squeezes his heart. Surely some kind of invisible, corrupting mark on him couldn't still be the case, not with Emeli banished so conclusively. "Believe me, I understand. I understand all too well. Never seems quite fair, does it?"
