~ because he has died 3 times and gotten horribly beaten up practically constantly in hi3, welt has chronic joint and nerve pain
~ that's why he made the star of eden into a cane when he replicated it, so it could have two functions
~ his pain is the worst in his knees and fingers (only made worse when he would overwork himself as an animator) but he has pain in all of his joints
~ his pain fluctuates so he doesn't need to use the cane every day (but he probably should most of the time)
~ on good days he just wears knee compression braces and a compression glove on his bad hand
~ most of the time he doesn't use his cane when he needs to, a habit leftover from when he was sovereign of anti-entropy and couldn't show weakness in front of others
~ pom pom and himeko (plus einstein and tesla when he was on earth) can always tell when he's pushing through the pain and refusing to use his cane
~ pom pom and tesla lecture him throughly on the benefits of using his cane when he needs it (and the consequences of not doing so)
~ einstein and himeko just hand him his cane and watch him for the rest of the day to make sure he's using it when he needs to (if he's not they snitch on him to pom pom/tesla)
~ although he wants to go on as many trailblaze adventures as he can, he only goes when his pain is mostly under control (that's why he didn't go to jarilo-vi the first time)
~ subduing and neutralizing stellarons make his pain flare up so he has to go back to the Express immediately after to lay down
~ theres one bathroom on the Express (but it is big, there's a whole car dedicated to it) and welt hogs the shower because the hot water eases the pain in his joints while he's in it
~ welt has a weighted blanket that he always sleeps with on the Express, when they spend multiple nights off of the Express he goes without it because it's too heavy to bring with
~ without the blanket he wakes up multiple times during the night from pain (if he even sleeps at all)
~ with the blanket he wakes up a lot less and his joints feel less achy in the morning
~ when march was learning how to sew (to alter her outfits) one of the first advanced projects she made (with welt's input and help) was a weighted arahato stuffed animal that could be heated up so he could ease his joint pain
~ march has the prototype version of the stuffed robot and insists the two robots are friends
~ occasionally his pain is so bad he can't get out of bed and on those days the trailblaze trio sets up in his room and they watch movies and play games to keep him company
~ welt always insists he doesn't need help but everyone (the express and his earth family) ignore him and help him anyway
~ when his finger/knuckle pain prevents him from drawing march takes pictures of the things he wants to draw so he can sketch it later when he feels better

Welt Yang, Frederica Nikola Tesla, Liserl Albert Einstein. I am not taking criticism. There are two incidents, the first is the Second Eruption, the second is what happened with Murata Ryusuke.
