[Vergil is a little more attentive than he otherwise would be to Nero's story once it becomes obvious that he's sharing a memory from his childhood. Truthfully, he anticipated Nero to make up some foolish nonsense. So, it's a pleasant surprise to have yet another piece of Nero's childhood to count among the rest that Nero's shared with him. It's easy to picture the boy from the photographs trying his best to be brave and failing miserably, too scared by his environment and the film he just watched to even be all that frustrated with himself for getting so scared in the first place.]

He really never went back?

[Vergil is at least willing to play along with how Nero's presented the memory.]
