[ He can't explain that it may be better for everyone involved if it were permanent, or that maybe he deserved it for what he did to Bradbury, or even that it was cathartic, in a way. Making sure that Bradbury would have that blood on his hands. Maybe it would be enough. ]

I know, pal. Thank you.

for someone who's supposed to be trying to make me feel better, you're really shitty at this.

[viced]

I'm not good at this kind of shit, you know that. I'm really shitty at this.

[waiting]

i know.

[viced]

I'm probably not going to be able to say anything to make you feel better.

[waiting]

'i'm sorry'

[viced]

Shit. I'm sorry for asking you to do that.

[ He's not. He's sorry it had to happen, but sorry didn't go very far. ]

[waiting]

[viced]

Fine.

I can do that.

[ Or he can fake it. ]

[ He knows he will. It's what Mitch does best. ]

[viced]
