Finding out it wasn't just one parent, that it was both...
That moves him even more. Even if her father wasn't killed by the bad people, he can see see how a death like that could consume both. He can just imagine how his father would deal with losing his mother - especially if he was already sick.
It moves him much that he reaches out his hand (slowly, so she can pull away easily if she wants) to briefly take hers in his, giving it a slight squeeze.
"That must've been hard. Honestly, the fact you can even still fight against the people who did that - can even fight at all... I don't think I could. I think something like that would just wreck me."

It says a lot about her.
