There's a pause before Will makes a sound close to an ehhh, halfway verbalizing his consideration to the line of questionings. Is it bad? Jesus Christ, all Will can think of is mushroom gardens and people turned into trees and Gideon and, really, by comparison?]
It's not too bad.
[Baltimore: the place where getting shot in the face while in federal custody isn't the worst thing that could happen.]
He's got some new scars, sure, we all do. He might blame me, though. He has a leg to stand on there [haha] if he did, I wouldn't deny it.
[His words start slow, gaining momentum as he goes. Like he's not sure how to take to this new ability to be "open" and "honest" when he's repressed this conversation for so long....Walter White's managed to bust through the dam and now he just has to be careful and gentle to get the flood. He's naught but a scared, abused pup, just treat him with some sense of compassion and he'll be Walter's best friend.]
I made him a promise, too. He doesn't know, but I remember. I told him I'd do something and he had faith in me. He was the only one. No one else gave a shit, they thought I was a broken record. But he knew better, that I could do it. And I did, just...not very well. I let him down. Don't want to keep it up, be the same complete disappointment all over again.
[Will Graham's work performance is a scattered, strange mess of EXCELLENT and WHAT WERE YOU FUCKING THINKING?]
I owe him more than that.
[Future crimes, guilt, sins of not doing just as he said, a sense of being in debt—well good Goddamn that sure does sound like Will's using this place as a sort of purgatory. One where he atones for the horrors his own people have gone through as best he can. Curious if that'll get shared.
More curious what happens if it doesn't, but either way is just fine by Will.]
