[So. Here's Mu. He materializes rather suddenly near his hammock and all but collapses on to one of the rocks that support it. There is one hand covering his mouth and he's pale. His expression is a mix of shock and sadness. There are tears in his eyes.

He stays like that a moment before taking a deep breath and sliding to the ground.]

[touches Shun's cosmo with his own, and that's the closest you're getting to a hug from this guy]

[Since this is really the first time Mu has done something like that Shun looks but...and realizes that as bad as he feels, Mu had known Milo a lot longer than he did. Shun poofs off the Astral Plane, then comes back with two cups of tea. He sits down, then places one near Mu.] Here.
[The cups are delicate china things, and the tea is something the cook was making for Saori. Shun didn't want to take the time to actually brew tea himself.]

[Mu nods in thanks, and just, holds the cup as though he were trying to leech it's warmth.]

I should not grieve this way...

Why? There is nothing wrong with grieving for people that were important to you.

[lamb_of_gold]

Because he fell in the line of duty. I'm quite sure he'd disapprove of how I'm handling his passing.

That doesn't mean you aren't allowed to be sad. I think everyone has to cry at least a little when something like this happens to get over the pain.

[lamb_of_gold]

I feel as though I am doing him a disservice.

Milo died for Athena, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be sad or not grieve or the fact that he's gone. If we honor his sacrifice and continue on after it...I don't see how missing him would make what he had done mean any less.

[lamb_of_gold]

I will mourn his passing as I would mourn that of any saint's, but I will not grieve.

[Shun just sips his tea and doesn't say anything. Mu's reminding him of how Hyoga was after Camus's death. There wasn't much he could say then either.]
