It was out of protection for Iris that Roman didn't want them speaking of it openly. He had no desire to silence her, but the time and the place didn't match up and the place may never really work in their favor. A camping trip meant for a fun outing was certainly not the time, however, so he would try to hold up all of her concerns and remember to bring them up sometime later. When they could afford to.

He had some of his own to work through, too, after all. Like memories of another family incompatible with the one he had now. He would take the one that was here over the one that wasn't, and didn't dare think that either wasn't real so much as something was obviously misplaced. He just usually didn't misplace things so badly, that much he knew about himself.

Being tugged along easily, Roman followed his daughter's lead. "Bet you have the nicest tent up here," he said with a grin. "Aside from the ones I helped on. Those might be equal."
