"No, you didn't.." He hadn't expected that he would have. He more felt that Seel would just curse him for not being there sooner--to stop it or pull them both out before the real damage could be done. Or pretend that it hadn't been him who'd done it. He'd barely been in time as it was and there was a long road ahead of both of them to recover. If they ever did.

Or maybe Seel would find a way to blame him for that, too. Somehow make it his fault that it even happened in the first place. Because every bad thing in the world was his fault now, right? He'd lost his mind and with that came losing everything else that used to make him a person. Now that there were new things, nohar quite believed it. Really, he shouldn't have expected much else.

"Swift did. On behalf of both of you." He'd assumed that would be the most he could hope for from Seel. "You may consider me properly thanked." Since he knew Seel didn't want to have to say it too.
