[Cilan would be lying if he said that thinking about people from home or the friends that aren't here anymore wasn't depressing (it definitely feels that way sometimes, as of late), but he can't help but respond to this with his usual good cheer and praise.]

My, well said, and such a wonderful idea too! A ceremony with such a sweet taste to it like that could certainly lift everyone's spirits here, I'm sure! [Including his, too. There are things he wishes he could have said to the people that weren't here anymore, so it could be nice to do something like this, even if those words don't actually reach those people from here--it's the thought that counts?]
