Amy's always been an expressive creature, she feels so much and all of it plays out on her expression so when Rip says he had a son, past tense, her heart twists in her chest and she's struck with a miasma of simultaneous emotions. Sympathetic grief for a man who lost his son, selfish grief thinking about the feel of Melody dissolving in her arms, gratitude that eventually she got her daughter back even if she was a grown woman.

And guilt that she feels grateful she at least had that and didn't lose Melody completely.

"I'm sorry." It's not a pitying condolence, full of some kind of quiet empathy and compassion that speaks to the experience that still isn't quite the same. "River is my and Rory's daughter."

Their daughter who is old enough to have a future husband and opinions on alternate realities she brought into existence even though Amy is not nearly old enough to have a daughter capable of any of that. Maybe a ten year old, she's old enough to have a ten year old seeing as she and Rory just had their ten year anniversary.

He doesn’t offer anything beyond a nod of his head at Amy’s condolences; while Rip certainly is one to carry around the weight of his grief and guilt alike, he’s got little desire to speak on either at length just now. His son and wife are both dead, and Rip knows with painful certainty that there is nothing he can do to change that fate—nothing short of risking the timeline, anyway, doing something so foolish and reckless that it crosses too many lines even for Rip Hunter to bear.

Miranda might quite literally kill him if he tore apart time just for her.

Far easier to parse the rest of what Amy says, then. Rip doesn’t miss that the person whom he had assumed was a woman should only be a girl if Amy’s appearance is any indication. He takes another long drink, considering it, then sets down his glass with a softly huffed out breath.

“Time travel?” It’s not a simple explanation per se, but for Rip, it’s an ordinary one.
